Has anyone got a link to a good CV example? U know there was a thread on this a while ago but I can't seem to find it.

Thanks,
Andy

At uni I was told create your own format, so it stands out from the rest, I presume that means the layout etc rather than structure.

I've got 3 examples from uni I can email you, if you wish. PM your email if you want them.

You are right in your presumption :) Other than that I regularly fell like strangling someone when I have to rewrite their CV from scratch as they wrote it "in their fancy, invented format", before I can send it in a readable version to my client...

That's all right then!

I've not had to write one either in ages since luckily the first job I applied for I got it.... The odds of that happening?! But placement year requires the CV topping up.
