Things To Include On Your CV When Applying For Trainee Estate Agent Jobs

Starting a new career in the property industry can be incredibly exciting, yet the process of applying for trainee jobs isn’t always as easy as you might think it would be. Often, those who would like to become a trainee estate agent don’t have any experience working in an estate agency and they can really struggle to make their Curriculum Vitae (CV) stand out from the other candidates who are also applying for the same role. 


Thankfully, experience isn’t everything, especially when you’re applying for trainee estate agent jobs, and there are lots of different ways that you can ensure your CV is showing you off in the best light and catching the attention of a recruiter for all of the right reasons. So, before you start applying for trainee estate agent jobs, take some time to edit your CV and make sure that you’re including some of the following; 


Relevant recent job roles 


Of course, you should always mention your previous job roles on your CV and even if you haven’t worked in an estate agency before, you should still inform a recruiter of your working experience. Ideally, focus on any recent roles that are relevant to an estate agent job and highlight any responsibilities you had that may cross over with those of a trainee estate agent. Your work experience can always be from placements, internships and apprenticeships too. 


Other useful experiences 


In addition to your education and work experience, it can be really helpful to mention any other useful and relevant experiences you have had. Whether you’ve been on a training course or you’ve volunteered somewhere, this is always worthwhile including in your CV and it can help to show that you’re a good candidate for a trainee role. These additional experiences are particularly beneficial if your work experience is quite limited. 


Transferable skills 


You want to ensure that your competencies stand out on your CV and it is important to include them clearly and logically. It is likely that you will have gained relevant skills through your education and work experience, and touching on these will help to inform the recruiter that you have transferable skills that can help you as a trainee estate agent. Things such as customer service skills and time management skills are always good to mention, if applicable.


Personality traits 


As you may expect, some personality traits will make you a much better candidate than others and it is worthwhile highlighting the traits that are beneficial to have in this particular line of work. For example, being confident, organised, highly motivated, enthusiastic, committed and ambitious are all brilliant traits, especially for trainees, and mentioning these can help to show a recruiter that you know what kind of person will be best suited to this job role. 


Hobbies and interests


It isn’t essential to mention your hobbies and interests on your CV, but it can be beneficial to do so when you’re applying for trainee estate agent jobs to show off your personality to the recruiter. This section should be kept quite short though and ideally, if possible, try to prioritise and incorporate hobbies that show useful skills like teamwork, for example, and interests that are relevant to specific things that were mentioned in the job description.
