Can someone go over my new (and ?improved?) CV before i go to drop it off

quick question, My mum is basically saying that i should re-type it in first person because it is difficult to read. I don't think she is right, what do you think?
 
I dont think you really need to include your age either, i would personally build my cv on the following order:

Personal statement,
Key skills
Previous employment - including achievements after your responsibilities

and so on etc
 
You don't need the word "date" as that's self-explanitory!

Also it should be written in first person by the individual writing it! So careful when you write "Works well" etc so you need to give an example otherwise they're just meaningless words.

If you can put that you worked with the Police then that would be a far better example so you don't have to state it!

Click to expand...

personally I would put either DoB or age, someone already told him to put age, personally I put DoB cause that's not going to change :p
but employers do sometimes take into account the age, ie, legality to serve alcohol in supermarkets, whether the experience they have is correlated to their age, such as 18 with 10 previous jobs, or 40 year old with one job, swings and roundabouts
 
Hi,

The objective doesn't read very well. Content is ok but i would restructure it into a couple of better written sentences.

Also, your interests and activities.... imo employers dont care. If you are keeping it in, typo in fishing line - patients


(Apologies if pointed out before, cba to read other comments)
