This webinar was incredibly useful and contained so much information. My notes are several pages long, but essentially the main tips I took from this in creating my cv is to keep it very concise and easy to read, as reviewers only take about 7 seconds to look at them, and also to not be cliche. If I want to write that I'm good at teamwork for example, instead of just listing that, I should give an example of something that shows I'm good at it.
It also settled some of my anxieties a bit as they talked about how if you don't have much work experience, you can structure your cv to feature the eductation and skills first which brings more attention to that.
I think the next step for me is to start compiling a list of everything I've done that I think could feature in my CV.
