BE SUCCINCT | CV Writing | Job Interviews

You might have more than 7-seconds, but not much

A little fun poem to make a strong message

Recruiters don’t sift CVs with ☕ and Twix
100 CVs reviewed with a couple of flicks
If reading your CV is like counting 🐑
Be zero interviews if the recruiter is asleep 💤
 
If you’re a fan of generic, wish-washy words
Sorry my friend, you’re away with the birds 🐦
Your CV can be fixed, it’s never too late
But making short stories long isn’t a good trait
 
Same at interview, your opening pitch
Ever seen the interviewer start to twitch
You think they’re happy, I don’t think so
They didn’t invite you to play bull 💩 bingo
 
Be alert if the interviewer turns white as a 👻
Your jargon-monoxide is killing your host
The waffling and jibberish is losing you jobs
Be more succinct for smiles instead of sobs
