Why do you want to leave your current job?
Question:
I am currently attending interviews for jobs and I am always asked about why I want to leave my current employer. There are some operational problems at my current workplace which are causing a high volume of customer complaints. Management has not explained why the problems are occurring or indeed how we are meant to resolve these complaints, this has been going on for over 6 months. I feel this is really unprofessional and so therefore I am looking to leave. Should I by honest and give this as a reason I want to leave, I don't want it to look as if I am critisizing my current employers.
10 things NOT to put on your CV
With the number of people applying for a job at it's highest level, it's important your C.V. is solid, concise and impressive. Take advantage of these tips and make your C.V. stand out.
1. Unnecessary Details About Your Life
There are a few personal details you should include on a resume: full name and contact information, including email, phone number and address. But beyond that, personal details should be kept to a minimum. If the prospective employer wants to know more than the minimum, they will ask you or figure it out for themselves. Your age, race, political affiliation, anything about your family members, and home ownership status should all be left off your resume. The exception to the rule: If you're looking to work for an organization closely tied to a cause, you may consider including your race, political party, or religious beliefs.
