    CV six years out of date.

    Oh bugger.

    Looks like I haven't needed one since 2010, having done a two year contract, then a 4.5 year contract to perm where I got hired by an old boss.

    What a faff. What's the longest you've had between updating a CV?

      Last one is dated 2011. So five years.

            Get someone to do it for you. If you haven't already, attend one of the CV and interview advisers webinars.

              Me too. Been at the last couple of gigs since 2011, and starting back at the previous clientco at the end of this month.

                Just fired up my old contracting machine to get a CV and it's so slow, now having to performance tune the whole thing first.


                Sheesh.

                    PM Suity.

                    He has had plenty of practice with CVs.
                    He may just have time to turn yours around, when he isn't saving the world
