Reply to: One cv for a permie job, one cv for a contract role

Sure you never have to send a CV as a contractor,

what a big pile of BS,

...next...

Well I dunno about that.

It is my Company that engages in contracts - not me personally, so CV's are never requested or given. Only proof of track record, case studies, reference sites etc.

Do normal people who do not necessarily need to fit into a contract or permanent role keep two separated copies of a CV to be sent either for a contract or for a permanent role?

I would guess that the contract CV should be more technically detailed and should not show your career progression while a permie CV give less details and tells a more narrative history of how you progressed from one role to the other role. Obviously, the contract CV should highlight more the technical skills while the permie one should do the same with soft skills and how you liaised with other business departments.

Any ideas? Or you all go for a rational unified CV?

First, there are no normal people here. Second, yes I am full of ideas. Third, yes I find writing my CV in UML really impresses PMs.

Here is a free tip Franko: call your it - "0-359 deg apprisal", this would allow you to be head and shoulders above the other permies because it would make it clear that you see the big picture all around you, rather than just look in one direction.
