          Or you could say something like "I've spoken to a lot of agents this week, remind me - which role is it?"

            Hi Guys,
            I have been working as contractor for 10 years in different roles, Test Manager, Test Automation Consultant, Test Lead, Test Analyst. Now since I am open to any of these roles I am having 4 different CVs focussing my experience in each of these roles. Same way 4 cover letters as well so that I can get attention from recruiters.

            Is this a good idea..??? May be some point same recruiter may have 4 different CVs for 4 different roles. But I have to say 60% these CVs are the same. Test manager CV have more test management activities showing my test management experise & same way to other roles focussing on activities of that role.

            I thought to take expert opinion of this forum on this..Please advise.
            It's what I do.
