Tips
The most important duty of a Dietitian is to provide dietary advice to patients, and therefore your CV should clearly reflect that you are passionate about two key things; 1) people’s well-being, and 2) nutrition. Your CV should demonstrate that you really care about your clients/patients and that you are absolutely committed to making a positive difference in their lives.
Good Luck!
