Ensure you have a voicemail set up for the contact number you use, so recruiters are able to leave a message. Check your spam inbox for emails from your target employers. Include your expected grade if you haven’t graduated yet. Most recruiters are familiar with degrees such as economics, mathematics, and politics, philosophy and economics, so you don’t have to include course details. For unusual subjects, however, additional information is useful. Don’t list all your GCSE subjects and grades. As you’ll likely have non-finance experience, it’s sensible to distinguish directly relevant placements from those that aren’t. If you have attended multiple insight days/weeks, summarise them on your CV, as they will have probably encompassed the same activities. A graduate CV shouldn’t exceed two pages of A4. Recruiters expect it to go over one page due to the experience you will have gained by this stage. Include non-related work experience if you have any. You will have developed transferable skills, such as communication, interpersonal and customer service in this example. Differentiate it
