Some employers will ask you to complete a Curriculum Vitae
instead of an application form when applying for a vacancy
You may have done a C.V. before but review it again in the light
of what you may have done after leaving school. Give some
details of what you did at school or college, and information on
specific projects and any further work experience you
undertook.
A C.V. is similar to an application form in
its content. Some employers expect C.Vs and others have their
own form. The benefit of preparing a C.V. is that it makes
you consider what you might put on an application form, and helps
you identify your strengths and weaknesses. Try and keep the
length to no more than two sides.
You can find many books and sites on the
internet to give you some ideas. One is at greatcvs
Here is an example of a
C.V.to help you.
