My brother did.

I have no idea how old you are though you probably indicated it a few times.

And some fashions are so dreadful so can be remembered whether you were 5 or 55 at the time.

Sure to be able to help out, as long as you supply 2 references and a brown envelope full of 50's.

HTH.

Don't be so stingy! Give him the whole bag of 50s....

Having naturally slightly curly hair myself I'm not sure why anybody would choose to do that to themselves.

Having contracted for a number of years, I took a perm role last summer.

Now the holidays are over I want to post my CV on JobServer, but am unsure if I should name my current employer within my CV.

I have always avoided this verbally to agents, and don't want my employer to know I'm looking (at this stage).

What do you think?

Richard

make sure you don't mention that it was "permanent"
