Thumbs up More Ideas Please

Ok, its the problem lots of us have; how do we stand out from the crowd...what really makes my CV any different from the hundreds of others that pass under the nose of the Chief Pilot, or Operations Director......?
Secondly, what are corporate operators expecting from new starters? (in general I guess)
Thirdly, as a professional looking to make a career out of aviation, the biggest challenge I percieve, is the very real difficulty in getting in contact with the right people..other than with email, which from an "attempting to create a positive and personal impression" can be challenging to say the least.
Any ideas, thoughts, suggestions, job offers etc....will be gladly accepted!
Strictly speaking perhaps this should go in the wanabies forum, however due to a desire to break into corporate aviation here in the UK......and the excellent feedback from those in the know, this forum also seems appropriate.

Best thing I ever did was to get a professional company to do my CV for me - that really does make a difference...

Hi Jersey,

Who did you have do your resume? What did it cost and was it true value for money?

Thanks.

Joe
