Does your CV have a Bio?

[suityou01]

This ^, minus the Key Projects bit. I have 3 clients atm so it's clearly not that important.

I have seen "Key Achievements" or perhaps just "Achievements". Perhaps that's less waffly.

"Got the Guiness World record for Burgers flipped per hour", rather than a description of the whole Burger Flipping project which can come in the job history.

[eek]

Professional Summary is a better description that Bio

I have:

• Professional Summary
  
• Skills
  
• Key Projects Descriptions
  
• Work History

I have a gig and you don't, guess mine works better than yours

WHS without the key project descriptions bit....

The main bit is that the professional summary is your sales pitch. Project x saved £x million a year, project y largest implementation in Europe, project z created a new revenue stream generating £y million additional income.

It always amazes me how many CVs I see have the applicant's innerests listed.

Why bother?

When I see things like sailing or rock climbing I think he's going to be wanting lots of time off to pursue those activities.

When I see hand bell ringing or, more recently, "the computerised control of model railways" I just think weirdo.

Much obliged to you all

Some food for thought. I've found that CV makeover video so shall watch that now.

Thanks all for your time.

Also I know its not your latest CV but make the skills list a paragraph type list rather than the table and totally remove proficiency... if you aren't confident in it or able to blag it don't list it.

Something like

Programming Languages

C# (10 years), Javascript (21 years), PL-SQL (10 years)

Databases

....

Don't forget the 50 nicker attached to the CV, that works occasionally

Mine also has a summary.

Don't know Why the OP is asking for advice on his CV though. As he said when I asked him to modify it once 'It's perfect, why should I'. So in response, Suity you're perfect and doing it all right. Why change?
