Talk show MASTER CV: Many "secrets" to building an impressive CV have been revealed.

Representing the University of Social Sciences and Humanities were Dr. Dinh Tien Hieu (Deputy Head of the Political and Student Affairs Department), along with staff from various functional units of the University. Representing Joboko Global Joint Stock Company was Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu (Human Resources Director).

Notably, the event featured the participation of 15 experts in recruitment, human resources, and human resource development from 15 reputable domestic businesses, and over 400 students from the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Vietnam National University, Hanoi.

In his opening remarks, Dr. Dinh Tien Hieu – Deputy Head of the Student Affairs and Student Support Department of the University – emphasized:For many years, career guidance and support for students to develop soft skills to access and enter the labor market after graduation have always been a top priority for the University's Board of Directors. Following the launch of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities' Student Job Portal and the "Job Fair - Connecting with Employers," the University continues its collaboration with JobOKO Global Joint Stock Company to organize the Talkshow "Master CV: Secrets to Writing a CV from an Recruiter's Perspective." We hope this session, with its in-depth knowledge and diverse practical experiences from 15 professional recruitment experts, will provide students with the "secrets" to impress recruiters and secure their dream jobs immediately after graduation."
 

Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu, Human Resources Director of JobOKO Joint Stock Company, expressed her delight at partnering with the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, especially the close and effective cooperation of the lecturers from the Student Affairs and Career Guidance Department in the career guidance activities, which will bring practical results for students. As a company specializing in recruitment technology platforms and also the first unit in Vietnam to develop Job Search Engine technology, JobOKO hopes to help USSH students, especially those about to graduate, perfect useful skills and enhance the capabilities of the young community in the digital age.

With over 15 years of experience in recruitment, talent acquisition, and human resource management for large corporations, speaker Huong Bui (HR Partnership Director, Head of Talent Acquisition at CO-WELL) brought fresh insights and engaging interactive sessions to the students.

Speaker Huong Bui's presentation revealed many interesting insights about the art of transforming a CV into a professional, visually appealing, impressive, and attractive one for recruiters, providing students with valuable secrets such as:
- Present specific, quantifiable information in a digital format so that recruiters can easily assess your skills and potential.
- The logic of the person writing the CV will always differ from the logic of the person reading the CV: Find out what the employer wants and needs in the job you are applying for.
- Being careful and meticulous is never enough: Even a very small spelling mistake or an inappropriate photo can significantly detract from a student's CV in the eyes of recruiters.
- Fit is the most important factor: Organize and present information to demonstrate that you are truly a good fit for the job and the company culture, rather than just talking about who you are and what you have to offer. Focus on quality and fit instead of quantity.
The speaker's presentation captivated the USSH students, sparking numerous questions and lively discussions. With their openness and eagerness to learn, the USSH students readily asked in-depth questions on very specific issues.
- For recent graduates with no experience, how should they handle and present information in the work experience section?
- What information in a CV will recruiters evaluate and focus on?
- How can you gain experience through part-time jobs while still in school?
- In the current era of Industry 4.0, what additional skills and knowledge do students in particular, and young workers in general, need to prepare to adapt and keep up with the changing trends in the labor market?
Recruitment and human resource management experts participating in the talk show highly appreciated the confidence and enthusiastic participation of USSH students, who asked very frank questions and clearly stated the difficulties they were facing in the process of finding suitable jobs. With their experience, the experts shared specific, open, and relatable advice.
At the same time, to address some of the concerns of students and to provide maximum support for candidates to create the most professional and creative CVs, JobOKO Company has introduced a direct CV creation tool. With special new features developed based on the actual needs surveyed from hundreds of students, we hope to provide more support for graduating students or those without work experience to access and have the opportunity to join the highly competitive job market.
 

During the talk show, students also had the opportunity to meet directly with 15 highly experienced and friendly experts and recruiters who were ready to share their knowledge in a 1:1 CV review and mock interview session. Using their self-created CVs, students received guidance from experts on correcting errors to improve their quality and also learned tips to enhance their interview skills when meeting with recruiters.
After more than 4 hours of sharing and exchange, the program concluded successfully. According to the students' feedback after attending, the talk show was a useful and memorable experience, through which they gained valuable experience not only for improving their CVs but also for developing additional skills to achieve greater career success.
