CV/Resume Review?

[alwaysthepessimist]

Just after a bit of help really - on the process of being made redundant, I paid to have a CV written for me quite a few years ago and over time I have added extra stuff to it.

I really need it reviewing/rewriting again as a 50+ woman I feel I really need to make myself stand out a bit more from the crowd - has anyone done this recently and who have you used? I haven't got a huge pot of money to throw at this so that's why I am asking!

I completely understand you as it’s so hard to make these things interesting at times.

I actually had the opposite problem, as I just finished uni and don’t really have any experience and had no idea what to put on my CV.

But I found this article on how to add skills and create a skill section to stand out more which was really helpful to put the focus on since I’m likely going up against more experienced candidates. I do have some interviews scheduled now luckily as well. I’ve seen other articles on the site with different tips to help people stand out in different ways as well.

Hopefully it works out for you!
