Did the tailored version not include all the errors in your CV?

Hopefully not, as I always get these things checked by other people.

Looks good to me

.

remember to tailor it to the job though. Most people seem to think one cv fits all. I have about 6 different basic CV's which can then be tailored for different job areas.

This is the general CV for the jobs i'm looking at currently, but as you say i will tweak it to favour the type of work.

Thanks for the input.

Much better - Your CV looks a lot more appealing to the eye due to it being spread out

Is 'skittles' the same as ten pin bowling? If so, I'd call it ten pin bowling instead, as it sounds a bit less juvenile.

nope not the same.

you should go try it, much better and cheaper than ten pin bowling.

Ignorance is bliss

Skittles is very competitvie in these parts of the world.

Large quantities of Ale, and more skill involved than 10 pin ( The balls fit between the gaps in the pins, for a start ).

Serious stuff.

( And the occasional fisty cuffs. )

Don't know if this is any help, but this is my CV, and it got me a few interviews a few weeks back pretty damned well.

Don't use '&' and watch out for apostrophes.
