Interview Coaching

Stand out with Morgan Spencer’s professional CV writing - expert formatting, tailored content & recruiter-approved templates.

CV Writing

<p>The presentation of your CV is probably of the most important aspect in your search for a job. It is the first thing a prospective employer sees, and the impression it gives will determine your chance of getting an interview.<br /><br /><strong>Always remember to include the following:<br /></strong></p><ul><li><strong>Name</strong></li><li><strong>Address</strong></li><li><strong>Telephone numbers and email address</strong></li><li><strong>Profile / career summary&nbsp;<em>(optional)</em></strong></li><li><strong>Education history, preferably including grades</strong></li><li><strong>Skills, including computer applications and typing speeds</strong></li><li><strong>Languages</strong></li><li><strong>Other qualifications</strong></li><li><strong>Employment history</strong></li><li><strong>Interests and hobbies</strong></li><li><strong>At least two referees</strong></li></ul><p><strong>Presentation:</strong></p><ul><li>Avoid small or elaborate fonts.</li><li>Using&nbsp;<strong>BOLD</strong>, Underline and<em>&nbsp;Italic</em>&nbsp;features help to make points in your CV stand out. However do not over elaborate as it can make your CV look cluttered.</li></ul><p>Whether a potential employer calls you into an interview or not can all depend on the quality and presentation of your CV. In today's competitive marketplace the need to sell yourself effectively is increasingly important. In a normal selection process you have two crucial opportunities to create the right impression to your prospective employers, your CV and your interview. Your CV is the first thing a potential employer judges you on. It is your own personal selling tool. Your CV gives you about two minutes to create the right impression and if it is right you will gain an interview.</p><p><strong>How do you create your CV?</strong></p><p>Assemble all the facts and list the information you need to include in your CV. It won't be perfect on the first attempt. When you have decided what you want to include you will then be able to work on the layout of it.</p><p><strong>What do you include?</strong></p><ol><li>You should always start with your name, and all contact details, i.e. email, mobile, home and work numbers, and of course your postal address.</li><li>Education comes next. This should include your secondary school and higher education ensuring that you include dates, the name of your school, the number of O Levels / GCSEs or A Levels (or the equivalent if from overseas) including subjects and grades.<br />You must also list degree courses, university / college and then any further courses that you might have done.</li><li>Work History should be presented in reverse chronological order, i.e. your most recent position listed first.<br />Give details of the companies you have worked for with the titles of the positions you held.<br />Duties should be listed in bullet points as this makes it easy reading.<br />Specify the period you were working for each company, i.e. the year and month, ensuring that you include the content of the position.<br />It will make your life easier if you think of your job in terms of the tasks you performed, the level of responsibility and any achievements.<br />The detail you put in should always be factual and should always be in the past tense.</li><li>You must always include any systems experience you have gained, including spreadsheets, word processing etc.</li><li>If you have taken a year out or indeed a few months to go travelling put it down. Gaps on a CV only raise eyebrows!</li><li>Be honest!</li></ol><p>When your CV is finished ideally it should be no more than two pages long, or three at a push. Keep the detail factual, and don't waffle.</p><p>Your CV must always be word-processed - it looks far more professional.</p><p>Before you even send your CV to a potential employer, make sure a friend or relative has read it for you. They will then be able to offer constructive advice if they feel the need to.</p><p>If you are unsure about anything or you have more questions, please make sure you contact Morgan Spencer who will be only too happy to advise you further and we can even send you a CV template for you to use for free.</p><p><strong><br />Remember, the CV will get you the interview!</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p>

Hire a Finance Executive Assistant in London

<p data-start="457" data-end="836">Trying to manage a full leadership workload without the right support can feel impossible. When you&rsquo;re running a banking team or investment office, the pressure builds fast. You&rsquo;re switching between calls, board work, client demands, and compliance tasks that can&rsquo;t slip. That&rsquo;s why finding a finance executive assistant who can keep everything organised makes such a difference.</p><p data-start="838" data-end="1066">Morgan Spencer helps banking and investment leaders hire finance executive assistants who handle complex diaries, keep workflows organised, and protect leadership time so you can stay focused on decisions that matter.</p><p data-start="1068" data-end="1085"><strong>Key Takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li data-start="1088" data-end="1191">Finance executive assistants manage complex diaries and reduce pressure on senior leaders in banking.</li><li data-start="1194" data-end="1256">High trust support improves decision flow for CEOs and COOs.</li><li data-start="1259" data-end="1349">Knowledge of banking workflows improves accuracy and protects compliance sensitive work.</li><li data-start="1352" data-end="1449">Strong coordination helps reduce schedule risk and improves productivity across senior offices.</li></ul><h2 data-start="1451" data-end="1501">Why Finance Leaders Need an Executive Assistant</h2><h3 data-start="1503" data-end="1553">How Executive Assistants Support CEOs and COOs</h3><p data-start="1554" data-end="1883">How executive assistants support CEOs and COOs is by managing priorities, organising communication, and controlling schedule pressure so senior leaders stay focused.
