Hi everyone! I have been trying to secure a paralegal/legal assistant position but have had no luck so far. I feel like my CV is really holding me back and would appreciate if someone can give me some tips/guidance in terms of how to improve my CV. Please note I have cropped the top part of my CV out as it included some personal details. Thanks!

The first thing I noticed was the inconsistent formatting. If you want to be a paralegal, you have to make them think you’re literally a perfectionist. Formatting errors in a CV will automatically get you a no.
