Anyway to make CV more appealing

Mummy2Olivia

Very quick one guys and gals

Had a few jobs in my time. Never left any in a bad way or anything but must of had about 10+ jobs (temping included) in 12 or so years.

Is there anyway to make my cv look better. All i see is loads of jobs and surely that cant look good. If it makes any difference my last two jobs have been at least 3 years each in length.

Were you actually temping for those companies directly?

Most recruitment agencies act as an employer for temporary work, therefore your boss is actually the agency and not the client company.

I have never listed all the companies at which I've temped - I've always put down the agency and a brief description of responsibilities. (I worked at lots of different companies, but did quite similar tasks.)

Any good in your situation?

Well since a cv is generally max of 2 pages in length you wouldnt be able to fit every job on so you could fit maybe 4 or 5 on.

Do you need to put all the jobs on? Don't most employers only want a 5-year work history?
