If money is tight whilst at university you may want to get a part-time job to help with your finances or undertake work experience during the holidays.

Even for the most mundane tasks, getting a job is about more than just your skills, qualifications and personality - it's also about how well you present yourself.

By sending a compelling, concise CV and a cover letter that's tailored to the job in question, you'll help your application stand out from the rest.
