CVs are the first thing that firms will look at when considering your application, therefore, it is crucial that you do not make some key mistakes. Here are a few do’s and don’t we advise: 

​

Do:

​

• Make sure the layout is clear, concise and and only one page (use our CV template below to get the best one-page CV layout used by many to get spring internship and  summer internships)

​

Do Not:

• Lie – although this may seem stupid, lying about things like languages, skills (e.g. excel) can come back to haunt you as often in interviews they may then ask you about this 

• Make stupid grammar/spelling mistakes

​
