Does your CV do you justice? Many people fall at this hurdle. Remember the
target company will receive dozens of unsolicited as well as solicited (via
adverts) CVs weekly and unless yours has a Wow! Factor it won't get past
the first reading. (That doesn't mean it needs to be flashy and lots of
colour - it's got to say "This guy is head and shoulders above all other
applicants based on his qualifications/experience. We need to interview him"
I've spent over 40 years recruiting staff so have seen many thousands - the
good, the bad and the downright bloody appalling!
If you want me to give you an unbiased view I'll happily take a look for you.

Hi all,
As some of you know, I recently started a course with a company here in
the UK that promised me full training as a MCSA/MSDBA/MCSD and a job at
the end of it. I now feel that I have been seriously mislead by the
company, as there have been delays in my course, issues with the
development server that have taken up to three days to fix and, having
completed my first course, I feel totally unprepared for my exams.
For those of you who are worrying that this is just a gripe, don't worry,
it's not, my main query is this:
My current skill set is as follows:
Linux Administration and Networking
Apache Server
PHP
MySQL
xHtml
CSS
I also have an MCP in NT4 server and workstation, but it's been a while
since I used it.
Using my skills, I've redeveloped internet sites, constructed bespoke
content-management systems and I'm working with a Volunteer organisation
on what we believe to be the largest public-access wireless network in the UK.
I have over 15 years experience of using computers, for 8 of which I have
been creating websites, yet I still can't seem to find a job.
Can someone tell me where I am going wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Matt
