Personal profile

This can be a great way to sum up what you have to offer and what you want your CV to achieve. It can be the first thing the recruiter looks at, and if it’s easy to read; targeted and concise, it will encourage them to read the rest of your CV.

Limit it to one or two sentences only, and be specific and focussed, rather than generic and vague.
