Age on CVs....

If you are going for more senior roles change your name to Minki Van Der Westhuizen

I prefer to use the name 'Sloane Winchester III' on my CV and wear a pair of bright red braces to the interview.

Had you considered 'Paris Hilton'?

Two pages?! I'm hardly started by page 3, and mine's six pages

Surely it's not too much effort for an agent to skip past the education and experience summary to look at the latest contract - two "page down" keys FFS!

I put the education at the end of mine (it's 3 pages). I figure that by the time they've read my job history, what quals I have is just added extra.

Jayzuz,

three pages of qualifications !

My whole cv is 2 pages

It must be a nightmare for recruiters and project managers getting cv's off you insecure lot who have towrite pages to cover up for your lack of knowledge and experience

Milan.

No, numb-nuts! The whole CV is 3 pages, with education taking up about half of the last page!

Same, first two pages cover skills, work experience, last (3rd) page contains simply qualifications/education details and some additional skills/meta data for the agents...a 2.5 page CV I guess.
