Hi guys,
Many moons ago when i was applying for jobs i had my CV proffessionally done for me and it looked the dogs b******s
I am now at the point where i am applying for jobs again and feel like my CV needs updating, ive had a look around for CV templates but all the free ones are utter garbish.
I just wondered if any of you guys had anything half decent that i could use as my template?
Cheers

no template but heres a couple of tips off the top of my head:
Dont use the word 'I' - its all obviously about you! start sentences with "Created, Worked, Assisted, Maintained, Solved etc"
Keep it simple one font and only 3 font sizes in total, and no more than 2 pages, regardless of what anyone says.
no point using colour as online CV uploaders use key word search engines, posted ones are scanned or photocopied etc.
and use nice thick white paper, it makes it stand out and 'feel' quality!
hope this helps
