Nestlé’s Head of Recruitment Reveals Keys to a Good CV

María Castelló Pascual, the Head of Talent Management and Recruitment for Nestlé’s Spanish arm, gave a talk on CV writing to third-year Business Administration students as part of the module on Human Resources Management. The session took place on Wednesday, 19 November 2014.

Castelló gave the students a range of useful tips on how to prepare a good CV. “A CV should reflect all your achievements and should be consistent with your social media profiles”, she advised. “One in every ten interviewees is rejected as a result of their profile on social media”, Castelló warned, before telling the students they must be as proactive as possible and take advantage of as many networking opportunities as they can.

“Regarding interviews, you must prepare as thoroughly as you can: your success depends on your preparation. And once you’re in there, you have to sell yourself”, the Nestlé representative added.
