Hi all

I am looking to get my CV up to date as the last one I made was a fair while back, Are there any good places to look for templates etc that may help with making mine stand out?

Cheers

Alternatively you can find other peoples CV's online, then you can just format yours in a similar style.

I think I did this for my last template, and have been using the same edited one if needed going forward.

Having had to read a lot of CVs over time, when recruiting for members for my team (IT) - I just want something simple and easy to read, you tend to get so many. If its fancy and all over the place then I'll just get annoyed.

It might be different in your line of work, but that's my personal preference anyway.

keep it under 2 pages is the main aim. Don't use tables or special columns. As most recruiters use ATS which look for key words and key skills in your CV that match the JD. ATS does not work with tables and special formatting so CV gets ignored.
 
ChatGPT is pretty good at helping, i used it to write a cover letter for a job and was blown away by how good it was. Only needed to change a few things!
