    One cv for a permie job, one cv for a contract role

    Do normal people who do not necessarily need to fit into a contract or permanent role keep two separated copies of a CV to be sent either for a contract or for a permanent role?

    I would guess that the contract CV should be more technically detailed and should not show your career progression while a permie CV give less details and tells a more narrative history of how you progressed from one role to the other role. Obviously, the contract CV should highlight more the technical skills while the permie one should do the same with soft skills and how you liaised with other business departments.

    Any ideas? Or you all go for a rational unified CV?
    I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.

      Best get back to completing your 360 deg appraisal Francko for your manager.

        Here is a free tip Franko: call your it - "0-359 deg apprisal", this would allow you to be head and shoulders above the other permies because it would make it clear that you see the big picture all around you, rather than just look in one direction.

              First, there are no normal people here. Second, yes I am full of ideas. Third, yes I find writing my CV in UML really impresses PMs.
