Does anyone know where I can get a good CV template, it's years since I have written one and would like some direction. Thanks

Microsoft word and office have some. You can access more from microsoft website I think. They seem to be ok.

Hi macymoo,

I did a 'google' search on curriculum vitae (or some silimiar spelling) and there were loads of results - including some templates.

Sorry if you have already tried this and the results are not as good as they appear, but it all seem to be there.

All the best

Hi Macymoo

Happy to eMail you mine if u pm me... I'm a contractor so my CV gets updated about every year - often been complimented on how well it comes across - even though it's got over 15 years of contracting history to cover.

All the best

I was a recruitment consultant for a couple of years (finance) and I'd be happy to look over your cv and give you some pointers if you like?

happy writing!

Thank you for all your help, I have DS (5yrs) and DS (2yrs) and Hubby works full time but financially I need to return to work, I am currently on a career break following Maternity leave, work is £16000pa but after I worked out childcare costs and petrol / bus and minused the tax credits that I'd loose it worked out only £10 a week difference and personally I'd rather be at home with kiddies than have an extra tenner.
Called WTC helpline and we are not entitled to any help with Childcare costs so that doesn't help, but unfortunately we need more cash !!
So anymore ideas welcome Cheers

I used https://www.reed.co.uk as they had a good online template.

Its:

1 - name, address, contact details
2 - education and summary of highest qualifications and attainment
3 - experience - the most important bit
4 - additional info
5 - note stating referees available if required

2 pages should be sufficent
