I dont see a problem setting your cv for specific roles especially in todays market.
I've been contracting since 1997 too and I dont have anywhere near 15 companies on it never mind 37 ffs!
If someone else wants to keep 30 cv variants up to date, good luck to them but to be frank, that sounds like a complete jackanory set of cv's to me.
I was once asked to change my cv to show I had skills I didnt have. Told the agent to **** off, no way would I do that.
Neither do I see anything wrong with an email outlining key skills together with my cv, again, especially in today's market.
In the last few years, I've become picky about the roles I go for. I've a good hit rate but Im not going to be a nob like some and say 'ooh, I've had 35 jobs and only ever had 36 interviews!' If you please.
