    Different font looks okish but not a fan personally. The lines under your name or really necessary. Post code not necessary. Disclaimer not necessary. No phone number.

    I wouldn't send it in PDF as agents tend to transpose on to their own templates.

    Layout looks nice but I dunno anything about codes.

    Could have moved to a new thread rather than taking this one off topic while you were at it.

    It's my first post here. I recently finished my perm role in order to start contracting work. Now I see that it's pretty hard to find anything. Contracts on job boards are reposted every 1 - 2 days and most remaining offers require a really deep specialisation. Could you take a look at my CV and say what is wrong with it? Maybe it's something obvious that I can't notice? http://bit.ly/2bDKr0v

    Thanks,

    Eh? References can only confirm start and end date. You're a bit out of date fella.

Sadly there isn't a mechanism for identifying poor contractors out there yet.
