I have a CV stacked full of telecomms product development buzz words.

I'm always getting calls for "Installation and Commissioning" (I.e going to a foreign country and putting cables down holes).

Comic Sans is a bit like an Italian - looks good but not much depth.

(Sorry Franko)

I thought Franko was a Spanish dictator.

Ariel is a mermaid - is your CV in Ariel?

Times New Roman my good man - it oozes sophistication

So, Arial is 'marriage material' but Comic Sans is good to look, a bit flakey and not to be taken seriously?

Most definately not. Ariel is the daddy of all fonts - strong, reliable, a trustworthy font!

I feel so much closer to you now

On a serious note, fi you had the world best CV and were absolutely 110% perfect for a job, yet you wrote you CV using a stupid font...or multiple stupid fonts....do you think you'd get the job?

I think there was a similar question posed a few minutes ago about how do you know that snow is thick?

PS I only used one font in my cv - thanks!

and what font is yours in? I should run a poll methinks - nah I cannae be bothered I have work to do.

Arial - That's getting a bit personal now isn't it, you'll soon know more about me than the OH!

So, I suppose the answer to the question is "No. Not very well."

aha - a serious answer - now what was the question again?

It's a quiet day on the boards today...

A very quiet day indeed.

Luckily I don't have to wear a tie as for mouse pointers I can't be bothered with all that rubbish.

Goodness me I felt like changing the font once - and it has attracted so much attention? Is it lunchtime or something - oh yes it is - I'm one hour ahead in CET!
