Coining it
Hello and welcome to the latest M word. July 27th sees the opening of the State Rooms at Buckingham Palace. It’s a great chance to see how the other half live, wallow in high culture – and meet lots of Japanese tourists who think they’re at Madame Tussauds. Times must be hard! Okay, this week we concentrate on CVs. Firstly, some cracking tips on filling your personal statement with more great lines than Mad Men. In the same vein, we tell you what all recruiters hate seeing most on your CV – and we’re not talking two-day old cappuccino stains. Lastly, check out our virtual job interview – it’s a lot more fun than the real thing. Bye for now – and see you at the Palace for tea.
