Every year, we receive several thousand CVs. When we then interview teachers, we often find that their CV doesn’t do them justice when applying to international schools. Our CV Review Service is specifically designed to address this issue, ensuring your CV stands out, meets sector standards and ensures that you stand the best chance possible of securing an interview.
A high-quality CV (Curriculum Vitae) or Resume is crucial because it’s your primary marketing tool. It’s your first impression for potential international schools, summarising your skills, teaching experience, and achievements to secure an interview and demonstrate why you’re potentially the right fit.
Whether you secure your next position through Teacher Horizons or not, this small investment is highly likely to pay off!
