    I did the IPSE one a while back and am slowly trying to find the effort to update my CV and LinkedIn a bit more. My LinkedIn was a copy of my CV (which used to throw me when agents would contact me on LinkedIn and ask if I had a CV) but it's changing a bit now to include different things / different style.

    One thing I've started to do more is include separate projects on LinkedIn where you can flag who you worked with and give a project description - probably more relevant if you were the project manager / architect than if you were the tea boy, but it might make a difference.
    A bit disapoointed with that advice TBH. 'Make it more chatty' isn't really going to cut it (I did recommend the £24.99 pack to someone yesterday though).

      Me too. But also to prevent my crazy ex from tracking me down
