‘Presentation at Interview’ is the most important factor in standing out from the crowd, according to 23% of jobseekers from a survey by TipTopJob, a network of generic and specialist job sites.
Presentation comes out on top, ahead of 22% who said work experience was the top factor, 20% thinking it was an effective cover letter, 18% qualifications and 17% relevant skills.In a separate report, IT recruiter Computer People’s director, Sid Barnes, has warned jobseekers against airing their grievances about personal experiences online, saying: “It is always wise to think carefully before making a negative comment about an organisation or complaining in a space that it viewable to all.
“That’s not to say you can’t complain online – it can be a highly effective medium – but it is worth ensuring any comments are polite and reasonable.”
This follows Computer People’s finding that 83% of 16-24-year-olds have posted complaints online.
