How to make your CV stand out for a hospitality job

If you're applying for a role that requires a CV, now's the time to give it a little polish.

At M&B, we love to see how you’ll fit into our team, so don’t be afraid to let your true personality shine through. A bit of preparation can go a long way, but keeping it real is the best way to make a lasting impression.
