When I was writing my CV to apply for an internship position, I realised one flaw in my perfectly crafted document. I needed a CV photo, and I didn’t have a decent photo of myself that wasn’t a selfie. This is a common problem we have in our era of front-camera snaps. Sure, it got 88 likes on Instagram, but I don’t think my prospective employer would appreciate seeing it.
Taking a decent CV photo can be such a chore – you need to tame your crazy hair, conceal your eyebags and cobble together a decent outfit. To make it as painless as possible, the #G2SuitUp Truck by G2000 is coming to save you guys on campus this October!
Here’s why you should look out for it.
Head over to the #G2SuitUp Truck for an express makeover by L’Oreal Paris before you have your photo taken. For the ladies, it spares you the trouble of slapping on makeup. As for the dudes, don’t fear the makeup brush – you can always wipe it off after.
There’s something about a good suit that makes you feel on top of the world. I certainly feel amazing when I’ve got a blazer on – I think it calls to mind the image of the gentleman spy, or a high-powered executive. Channel your inner James (or Jane) Bond in front of the camera with a blazer.
At G2000, workwear doesn’t have to be boring and unfashionable, nor do you have to break the bank to assemble an outfit for the first day of work. Have a look at the outfits we styled here!
Get dolled up, dressed up, and have your CV photo taken for the extremely low price of free. No fuss, no cost, all the results! It definitely beats spending a bomb at a photo studio, struggling with a camera timer, or convincing your talented photographer friend to help you out. I’ve run out of bribes to use on mine.
After you’ve taken a CV photo that’s sure to impress your potential boss, let your hair down and have fun! Get together with your friends and come up with the silliest antics and funniest poses at the instant GIF Photobooth. The GIF will be sent to your phone and you can post it on your social media platforms to share the laughs.
We saved the best for last, and this is the only reason you need.
Upload your GIF from #4 to your social media platforms with the caption: “I wanna #FlySQ to ________ “, and hashtag #G2SuitUp. The most innovative GIF will win a graduation trip for four on Singapore Airlines to any destination in their network.
You heard me right, we don’t kid about free stuff. Grad trip, SQ, any destination of your choice.
You could go to a place you never thought you’d be able to visit- head over to Barcelona to witness its vibrant street life and striking architecture, or get up close and personal with zebras South Africa. Life as a student is ridiculously great.
When you sign up at the event, new and existing KrisFlyer members will receive exclusive fare deals and/or bonus miles for your upcoming travels too!
Keep your eyes peeled!
The #G2SuitUp truck will be headed to 5 different schools from 12-16 October from 11am-4pm. Look out for the truck at these locations:
Monday, 12 October – NTU
Tuesday, 13 October – NUS Law (Bukit Timah Campus)
Wednesday, 14 October – SIM
Thursday, 15 October – SMU
Friday, 16 October – SMU
Even if you don’t really need a CV photo at the moment, it’ll come in handy someday so go for it, and maybe you and your three best friends will be able to frolic with the giraffes or watch the northern lights together in the near future.
