Can somebody please tell me if my cvs ok?
I dont think its a good idea under summary to put it in the third person. rather say Im looking to move into this business sector
Reply:Hi Tracie.


The layout is fine, as long as you are including the full address of your employers and educators in the full version.


It would be good to add if you have a driving licence, that you are a UK citizen and passport holder, that references are available and the notice required by your current employer (if any).


A bit about aspirations and target salary can be added but should be tailored as far as possible to the job applied for.


Good luck, Steve.


PS you sound attractive, so adding a good head shot photo is a good idea when after a job you really want.
Reply:That is not your real address right??????





But otherwise looks ok, search on yahoo to obtain ideas on layout etc.





Be careful with She and he etc, never state she or he, this is quite rude when writing about yourself!
Reply:It's crap. It's too short. What position are you after? Tailor it to the position you desire.





[edit] I've already spotted two mistakes. One is that you need to write in the first-person (eg. "I", "my). Another is that you actually mix "he" and "she"!!!
Reply:Get rid of the Summary, as it is NOT necessary. In a couple of my previous positions I have to through a pile of CVs sent in response to a vacancy and I was told to THROW AWAY all the CVs with a Summary.





Career History goes AFTER your Education.





The Personal Information goes BESIDE your address.
Reply:I think that in your summary you should change the "She" and repace it with "I" as if you are talking about yourself
Reply:Firstly you shouldn't be posting such personal information on this or any other website. You're writing in the third person on your CV which is not something I do, not sure if that's acceptable or not really? You've got a type as well, one of your she's is a he. Are you in America? If not your spelling of organizational should be with an s not a z. I hope you get the job.
Reply:Hi you posted your personal information on the net? Are you insane?





Take it down quickly!!





But also remove all the "She's" who are you talking about? I mean I know you are speaking of yourself, but seriously, "she does this, she does that"....you would NEVER spk of yourself like this normally, do not put it on the net!!





I would suggest contacting your local employment centre %26amp; asking for an updated CV format, and then plug your information into that.





Good luck!
Reply:yeh just swop creer history with summery and add more interest current affairs reading etc.
Reply:Please tell me thats not your real address?
