Sexing up the CV

Jigga

Does anyone here know a good place in Limerick where they can sex up my CV? Preferably a place that doesn't charge much. Thanks

If you head up around Catherine St at night you can get pretty much anything sexed up.

Most Recruitment agencies will bring you in for a meeting if you apply for a job to check you out. It would be no harm to go to one of those and get a few pointers, they will be more accomodating if it's skilled work you are looking for.

That's why I mentioned the bit about being skilled (by skilled I mean degree + experience). The market is a bit of a disaster for non-skilled/experienced people as there are just so many out there in the same boat.

I see the Trinity Rooms are advertising for a full time bar person if that's of any interest?

iv got a certificate in construction studies and a degree in health and safety, not to mention loads of experience in retail etc so i wont see why i wouldnt get one like, ya bar work is something iv never done so id imagine they would be looking for experienced people.
i used to steward in thomond park too but they had to cancel my contract cos i broke my toe and would be unavailable for a couple of matches! :rolleyes:

Its next to the library Dave. Might be worth popping in and wearing a suit wouldn't be necessary.
