* Headshot. Nice photo though you think it is, this has to be a professional image of you. ** Make sure you’ve a naturally lit, professional style headshot. ** The photo shouldn't be too dark or overly bright. ** A high quality image of your face taken at an event, wedding, graduation. ** Ensure no other person or part of a person is visible in the images used. ** Avoid images with headwear, no hats, sunglasses, etc. ** A confident smile is the ideal presentation of your face. ** Get it done professionally if you don’t have one. You can use it everywhere, they are once off €60 to €100 but sooo worth it.** If overweight, don't stand directly in front of the camera. Turn slightly to one side. Your turning your head will pull / tighten spare skin under your chin.  
* Experience… get every company you’ve worked for listed. All experience is a good one. If you do a job in a social setting include that too. Scout leader. Community leader. Just because you don’t get paid doesn’t mean the job doesn’t have responsibilities, planning and effort associated with it.
* Where appropriate get recommends from employers, former employers and work colleagues.
