updating cv with new skills

[cont123]

Hi all

As been a contractor you need to keep adding new technology to your skill set list my question is how can you portray it in your Cv when you have new stuff just learned off the job or on your own ?

thanks and regards

Try rephrasing your question in your first language?

I update the role details with the things that I have done.

I think it means "Can/Should I update my cv with skills that I have learnt off my own bat without a link to specific roles?"

On that assumption my response would be:-
Represent all your marketable skills on your cv - it is your shopwindow.
Personally I wouldn't differentiate between 'how' I acquired the skills".

You can do what you like but you'll find it hard to convince a client that playing around with a Solaris VM on Virtualbox for example is the is the same as configuring Solaris VMs on a SPARC T-5 with control and I/O domains, dynamic LDOM's and Oracle Cluste in a geo-split environment.

Get found out, get chucked out.....
