A CV Profile Statement is a one-page document that you submit with your CV. This concise profile provides the reader with some more information about what type of position you're looking for, your skills and experience, and how your personality and personal interests make you a great candidate. Your CV Profile Statement can be a valuable tool in your career search. By providing prospective employers with more information about what type of position you'd like, your skills and experience, and how your personality and personal interests make you a great candidate, the profile statement will help you stand out from the crowd of applicants.
