Arrghh, distractions!!

I don't get it. Your CV was OK last time you applied for a job, why is it useless now? Why can't you just add the little bit for the current/last gig you did?

No, I get a good one done and tweak it very slightly!!! Most of the time I do not need to anything to it...and if I need a major review, I get it done at a reduced price.

hmm.. this appeals to me.. leaves me free to waste, guilt free.. any recommendations who to use?

i didn't really need a cv for my last jobs - the employers knew me and my skillset.. i did spend weeks recently updating my cv and was happy.. i got an interview but blew it (the interviewer's call woke me up, at 12:30pm! i was brain-dead with a throbbing headache.)

however, looking at my cv now - it's tulip.. it's five pages long - general with far too much info.. i'm endeavouring to rewrite, ir35calc template style.

Try cracking one off. That should relax you enough to concentrate.

HTH

By the content, I expect you are spanking your monkey as you write every post

Bullet points are the answer - honestly. See this - hope it helps a bit. 2 pages should be enough for any CV. Fiddle with font sizes and spacing to get it down as much as possible.

Don't get him started.
