I was made redundant in June, I'd been at my company for 11 years and was ready to move on. I had a really tough time over the final 18 months, think not supported properly and having to deal with difficult customers and office politics.
I started claiming JSA at the end of Sept but unfortunately by Nan died unexpectedly a week later so I've been signed off by the doctor for the past 4 weeks.
I feel ready to start looking again and am really eager to get back into work. I've completed a skills assessment which has helped me to look at different roles that will suit my skill set but I'm really struggling with my CV.
I've applied for about 4 jobs over the past week but I've not had any interviews or replies and am starting to worry my CV is shit.
I'm trying to be positive but due to the crap time I had before I left work and feeling delicate about my Nan, I'm prone to look at the negatives rather than the positives which isn't helping me when I'm trying to re-vamp and update my CV. Plus there's so many different types of CV's out there, I'm not sure which I should be using.
Does anyone have any tips or advice?
