Want a career with an Organic, Fairtrade or Ethical company?

Opeople have the career advice job seekers need.

Having a good CV is half the battle to getting an interview. Does it reflect the nature of the vacancy you are applying for? Does it say enough about your experience without being too wordy? Does it have your full contact details?

When it comes to the interview, an employer will be able to tell if you are genuinely interested in their business or have the experience they need.  Alot of recruitment agencies will try to mould you to a role and talk both you and your potential boss into seeing you. Is this what you want?

Organic, Fair-trade and genuinely Ethical companies tend to respect their employees and have a different approach to recruitment. Experience is essential but for most employers; an empathy with the core values and the sector they work in is as important. Do your homework; research the employer, who's interviewing you, why do you want this role, make sure you have questions that inspire the interviewer and give you the answers to make your decision. Dress appropriately...ask what fits their work culture.
