Building your first CV

Three ways in, and which one to pick.

New CV gives you three doors, and they are genuinely different starting points.

Paste the job posting — the fastest route. Winkle reads the advert, works out what it asks for, and re-frames one of your existing CVs to answer it.
Name the role — when you know the job title but do not have the advert yet. It aims the CV and suggests keywords, but it cannot re-word properly until it has read a real posting.
Start blank — an empty document, or one seeded from what Winkle already knows about you.

Tailoring always saves a NEW document. Your original is left exactly as it was, which is what makes one CV per role workable.

Did this answer it? If not, tell us what you were trying to do and we will fix the article.
