Job Hunting Cvs

[mundia]

Usually when I apply for jobs, there is an applicatin form to complete but recently Ive beeen asked to complete a CV. Has anyone got a really simple blank format I could use please?

Oh, I can't bear CVs!!! They don't allow you to tailor your application to the job spec.

 

I have seen a few CVs recently that the college have sent me for their Apprentices. They must get trained in writing them at college as they all have the same headings!

• Name, address and telephone number at the top in the centre
  
• Sorry - date of birth goes in with this
  
• Personal Profile (a few sentences outlining your career or education - make it link to the post applying for)
  
• Key Skills - bullet points, e.g. excellent team member; enthusiastic, etc
  
• Education and Qualification - most recent first
  
• Achiievements and Hobbies
  

Good luck with it!

Hi Mundia,

if you have Microsoft Office have you tried opening a 'WORD' document, clicking on FILE and then the 'new' tab and then doing a search in 'Templates on Office Online'. There are sample CV's for loads and loads of situations that you could use or adapt! Good luck with the job hunting
