Rudraksh Immigration Mohali Describes The Ways To Make Your CV And SOP Stand Out!

While taking the decision to study abroad, the most important aspects lie in how effective your Resume/CV and SOP (Statement of Purpose) are.

As one would imagine, your CV must contain the highlights and achievements of your professional and personal life. The Statement of Purpose, on the other hand, articulates the exact reason for you to pursue your education in a new country. One needs to convince the visa department and university that he/she will be an asset to the country and education institute.

After having read these documents along with the academic certificates, will the immigration office issue a letter of acceptance or rejection. Therefore, the CV and SOP play a crucial role in deciding your fate in a foreign country.

Rudraksh Immigration  is a leading overseas education consultant in Punjab and has processed thousands of student visa in over 27 years. It has highlighted a few points to keep in mind while formulating impressionable CV and SOP.

Readability

All the documents that you submit to the university or foreign embassy, you must make sure that the readability quotient of these documents is high. Everything should be clearly elaborated and grammatical errors must be avoided.

There should not be any ambiguities or complications that might lead to the cancellation of your visa altogether. The information that you provide has to be precise and relevant.

Length of the CV and SOP

Ideally, the CV should not be more than 2 pages long and the SOP should be 1 page. One must understand that it is not about how much content you write in your CV and SOP, rather, only the relevant points have to be there. These points should be explained briefly and one should not try to extend the CV to two pages or more unnecessarily. The aim is to give out as much information as possible in as little words as possible.

Relevant Information

If there are not too many points to mention in your profile, then it is better to keep the CV short. One of the common mistakes that students make is to try to fill up the page with some irrelevant information from many years ago. This triggers a negative impression in your CV and the reader can think that you are not professional enough to understand what needs to be there in the CV and SOP and what not.

Good Old Honesty

This might well be one of the most clichéd words with regards to CV and SOP but the value of honesty must not be underestimated. A lot of students try to impress the immigration authorities and the university administration through untrue achievements and skills which they don’t necessarily possess.

Students think that no one would cross-check or notice and they can get away with it. However, this can’t be further from the truth. The authorities have been doing this for decades now and if they catch even a slight inaccuracy in your documents, you can kiss your visa for that country goodbye.
