CV Preparation

Want some advice? This is what we suggest; get a couple of clean sheets of paper, your computer online, a cup of coffee or your favourite tipple (not too much mind, this is not supposed to be enjoyable - only joking!) and a day when you will not be disturbed.

There is a CV Builder facility in the members' area of the site. Simply join by providing some basic information and off you go.

In most cases it is best to provide some personal details first, followed by employment history and education in reverse chronological order. This can be followed up with other information such as hobbies and interests etc.

You want to bear in mind the positions you will be using this CV to apply for and give certain aspects of it more weight and attention. Conversely beware of holes in your history and untruths.

Once completed you can save it for future use or print it as many times as you want. You can even change it from time to time and we will shortly allow you to upload an image (your photo) to it if you wish to include it.
