    More specifically google "skills based cv" or "skills cv".

    If you are wanting to change career, you need to build your CV around the skills you have that the target career needs rather than a classic chronological employment history CV.
  • A lot of companies these days don't accept CVs, including the one I work for, you just have to fill in an online or paperbased application form, so not worth the money.
    I love a bargain. Now mortgage and debt free. hurray!!:smileyhea
