Dear CIFS Students,
Just a quick reminder that for the next two weeks you are having interview simulations for DPI.
It is mandatory to attend as it is part of your Entry 2, where you will be discussing whatever you experienced during that. The questions for your Entry 2 are provided the DPI CW description.

❗️Do not forget ID Cards

Sincerely,

🇬🇧 Changes to the Group Work Policy:

Contacting Group Members: Students must contact their group or pair members within 1 week after the groups are formed.

If a Member is Unresponsive:
Students must inform the Module Leader and provide evidence of attempts to contact the unresponsive member.
The Module Leader will send an email to the unresponsive student outlining their responsibilities.

If No Response Within 24 Hours:

The Module Leader may remove the unresponsive member from the group.
If this leaves the group with fewer than 3 members (or fewer than 2 in pair work), the Module Leader must reassign the remaining students to other groups.


If a Member is Not Contributing After Half the Time Has Passed:

Students can report a non-contributing member to the Module Leader.
If removing this member leaves the group with fewer than 3 members (or fewer than 2 in pair work), the remaining students will receive full marks for the assignment due to the difficulty of reassignment at a late stage.


Important! Contact your group on time and contribute to the work.

Hey guys, some changes in group work policy

🇷🇺Изменения в политике групповой работы:
Связь с членами группы:
Студенты обязаны связаться с членами своей группы или пары в течение 1 недели после формирования групп.

Если участник не отвечает:

Студенты должны сообщить об этом модул-лидеру, предоставив доказательства попыток связаться с ним.
Модуль-лидер отправит письмо «молчащему» студенту с напоминанием о его задачах.

Если ответа нет в течение 24 часов:
Модуль-лидер может исключить этого участника из группы.
Если после этого в группе останется меньше 3 человек (или 2 в случае парной работы), модул-лидер обязан перераспределить оставшихся студентов в другие группы.

Если студент не участвует в работе после половины срока:

Студенты могут сообщить о «халявщике» модуль-лидеру.

Если исключение этого участника приведёт к тому, что в группе останется меньше 3 человек (или 2 в паре), оставшиеся студенты получат полные (максимальные) баллы за задание, так как перераспределение на позднем этапе невозможно.

📝 Tips to create a strong and professional CV:

▪️Make sure to include your full name and surname, education, work and volunteer experience, skills, certificates, and achievements.
▪️For free CV templates, use novoresume.com (first page is free, which is more than enough for the coursework) or Word/Canva templates.
▪️While writing a brief introduction of yourself, DO NOT use any pronouns and speak in third person (ex. An experienced economist providing complex solutions). Write 2-4 sentences explaining your key strengths.
▪️When describing your experiences, start your sentences with action verbs (ex. Improved, conducted, delivered, created etc.)
▪️In case you do not have any work experience, do not worry. Stress on your extracurricular activities or your achievements in education.
▪️You can include your Lyceum/Secondary school achievements as well.
▪️Include all your certifications with the score you received.
▪️ Write all languages you speak and your level of fluency of each.
▪️Ensure all the included information is relevant to the vacancy you choose.
▪️Make sure you don't have any spelling or punctuation mistakes. Do not use any abbreviations.

Wishing you the highest scores in your upcoming courseworks!💞
