Morning All,

An opportunity has potentially arisen for a new job/career change.

The thing is that the opportunity requires a CV. No biggy.

The only catch is I do not have/never needed a CV.

Looking for any pointers/good examples/format etc.

Thinking back to Uni advice they said two pages max – that’s all I can remember!

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

Mark

Depending on the industry you're applying into, this may well be pish. I've seen CVs desperately crammed onto two pages when they've really needed three, and it looks awful. A CV is as long as it needs to be; a school-leaver applying for a stop-gap job at ASDA is going to have a very different document to a Consultant with thirty years' experience and qualifications coming out of his ears.

It's hard to give "one size fits all" advice, there's too many variables. Get to the point; be honest; most relevant information first; be clean and readable; sell yourself.

I'd need to know more about your history and the sort of role you're looking for to advise further. Maybe you should write a CV? (-:
