Need to make a CV

first78

I need to do a CV on the computer but my trial edition of MS Office has expired and I don't have any other programme on the computer to enable me to do this. I can't afford to buy MS Office...can anyone tell me a way round this so I can get my CV done, please!!

don;t forget to choose to 'save as' a word .doc file so people can open it in MS office too. otherwise you'll probably not get many job offers

Office 2010 (time-limited ) still available too :

Even better, openoffice can export as a PDF file.

Yes that is a useful tool, but you can also publish as a pdf in Word 2007 too.

However, a lot of job sites won't take a CV in a PDF, nor recruitment consultancies either.
