Not every job requires a two-page Curriculum Vitae. Recognizing the diverse nature of the job market in Zimbabwe, we've introduced Flexible Application Requirements.
Why Make CVs Optional?
For many roles—such as skilled trades, general labor, or entry-level service positions—practical skills and availability are often more important than a formal document. Requiring a CV can sometimes be a barrier for excellent candidates who might not have access to a computer or the skills to craft a professional resume.
How It Benefits Employers
Wider Talent Pool
Attract candidates who are qualified but might be discouraged by strict documentation requirements.
Faster Applications
Reduce friction in the application process, leading to more applications in less time.
What This Means for Candidates
If you see a job posting that says "CV Optional," it means you can apply using just your Everyday Vacancies profile. Make sure your profile is up-to-date with your:
- Contact Information
- Work History
- Skills & Qualifications
- Education
This feature is designed to make it easier for you to apply for jobs on the go, directly from your mobile phone.
Note
While CVs can be optional, we still recommend uploading one if you have it. A well-crafted CV can always help you stand out!
