CV / Resume Example
On this page you will find a CV / resume example that was prepared by
Bradley CVs. If you would like our FREE guide: Is your CV letting you
down? How to dramatically improve your CV. Please click here NOW!
To get to an interview you need a CV / resume that really catches the
reader's eye. The layout must be clear and simple, enabling the reader
to find the information they need quickly. You probably only have 20 to
30 seconds to attract the reader's attention. So anything too
elaborate, such as flowery borders will just detract from your content.
It's vital that the words used in your CV / resume really make the
reader want to meet you and to invite you to that all-important
interview. Your CV / resume is your sales document to a recruiter /
employer and if it fails to sell you then it will probably end up in
the bin and hence no interview. For details of our professional CV
writing service please click here or email
When you print out your CV / resume you must use a good quality printer
and paper (Bradley CVs uses a laser printer and Conqueror Paper).
Always use a paper colour that is easy to photocopy such as brilliant
white, cream or vellum. The CV / resume example below uses a white
background to minimise the amount of toner/ink that you will use if you
print it out.
Please note that this CV / resume example layout is not appropriate for
everyone - if you get Bradley CVs to produce your CV for you we will
use the most appropriate layout for you. If you want to view or print
