    CV Prof advice

    I am curious as a contractor is there any organisation that exists where a CV can be tailored to the specific position you perform, eg contractor not permanent. I have quite a few contracts on my CV with technical descriptions and they are taking up a lot of room, CV is now going onto 5 pages.

        I've got 3 Cv's each tailored to a particular position, where previous Jobs are not applicable to the one I am applying for then I gloss over the postion or it is just not there.

        The key information is on the front page (skill a - x years, skill b - 1Gb years ....). Skills that are not relevant to the position do not appear.

          CVs are a constant source of threads here. I have a variety from 2 page for contracting all the way up to a 12 page monster that is attached to grant applications for my university work.

          So its horses for courses.
