A CV doesn’t just have to be a stationary page that only changes when you get a new job or a new qualification; it can actually be tweaked and adapted for the positions you’re going for. One CV is not going to be entirely relevant for one specific job, and if you take this into account you could end up increasing your prospects.

Occasionally there are countless CVs handed in for one available job position, and the closer your CV is to that position the better. You may find that the job you are applying for has a list of skills required. If those skills are not mentioned in your CV then it’s likely that you will not make the cut for an interview.

This is why you should consider adapting your CV for the specific job you are applying for. It’s something experienced individuals will do when they apply for a job, but remember you do not necessarily have to rewrite your CV, you can merely make the changes that are required and nothing more. Happy Job hunting!
