PM me your CV. I will see what I can do.

May ask you a good few questions, but that's the nature of the beast.

A good CV has a lot to do with presentation. People say it's just a list of your experience, but I have seen some awful, awful and then some boring lists. The CV that stands out is the one that has the basic information, is formatted in a presentable way and gives me just enough detail that leaves me wanting to ask a little more. This way, I can get through it in a minute and not be left reading an essay of everything every job entailed.

A colleague of mine sent her CV to dozens of employers over a period of a few months. Her CV was the typical list of personal details, education and then work experience which spanned 3 pages, plus a cover letter. She got zero replies. I reformatted her CV and cut out all the unnecessary crap. I took her half page cover letter and summarised it onto her now 2 page CV which was geared toward the type of position she was applying for. The very first application she made with the CV landed her an interview and she got the job.

Oh and don't use the skills ratings. List skills by all means, but don't go rating yourself, or your CV will either end up in the bin, or you'll end up looking like a reject trying to justify your rating.
