Since the financial crisis of 2007, jobs have been and still are extremely hard to get. The financial crisis effectively wiped out the middle class, so there are less jobs for university graduates and high school graduates, as well as everybody who is trying to get back into the work force. And to top it all off businesses are closing down in record numbers. And that means business owners and their employees are back in the workforce. So the competition for each job has just heated up. And there are less jobs being advertised. That means more people are applying for each job. All hoping beyond hope they will get the job. Now you can give yourself the edge with an online CV. When your future employer sees your CV, you have possibly less than 30 seconds to impress, or delete. You are competing against the dreaded delete button, as well as everybody else who applied. Your CV has to be more eye catching, better set up and contain what your prospective employer needs to know, just to evade the dreaded delete button.
