Fact: The UK food manufacturing sector typically hires over 100,000 temporary, interim, and contract workers during the Christmas period to meet the seasonal demand for festive products. As we approach the holidays, many companies are still looking to fill roles in production, packaging, and quality control. If you’re still preparing for the festive season and gearing up for 2025, now is the time to ensure your team is fully staffed with the right temp, interim, or contract workers to keep operations running smoothly into the new year. #FoodManufacturing #SeasonalHiring #ChristmasRush #TemporaryStaff #InterimWorkers #ContractRoles #HolidayWorkforce #UKFoodIndustry #ReadyFor2025

Your CV is your shop window when looking for a new role, and it’s always a hot topic of conversation. 🎯 If you’re using a recruitment agency, they can assist with your application. But if you’re applying directly to a company, your CV needs to stand out. So, what’s the deal with CV length? Most candidates hear from recruitment agencies that your CV should never be more than a page or two. I find this utterly ridiculous. 🧐 Who came up with this rule anyway? There’s no one-size-fits-all policy here. Your CV should align with the job description or advert you’ve seen – and let’s be honest, those are often longer than one or two pages themselves! I agree, your CV should be concise, but if it spills over onto a few pages, that’s okay. 📄 Here are the key things to make sure you have in your CV: - Responsibilities for each of your roles: Don’t just list them like a book. Make sure you bullet point them and keep them concise. - Key achievements for each role: Include 2 or 3 key achievements for your recent roles that are commercial and include numbers – this will make you stand out. 💡 - Your mobile number and email address: You wouldn’t believe the number of CVs I read that don’t include this, making it very hard for anyone to get in touch and discuss the opportunity. 📞 This whole rhetoric around one or two-page CVs is crazy. If you work in any role – be it technical, sales, marketing, or finance – why would you deliberately miss out on achievements and responsibilities that make you stand out just to hit this arbitrary brief? 🤯
