CV help please

[RainyJuly87]

Hello
I just wondered if anyone knows if there are any sites online where I could get my CV written (low cost or preferably free). I've tried to do it myself but cannot get the format right and it ends up looking messy and unprofessional. I want to do some volunteering and they've asked for one but I haven't had to do one in absolutely ages (decades) so a bit clueless! Any help or advice would be appreciated. Many thanks

Just to add, I've had a look online but many are quite expensive or promise it's free and you sit there filling it in and then they try and charge you at the end.

Do you have MS office on your computer? I'm sure word has a template.

I'll have a look I'm sure it does..thank you

Is it not knowing what to put or is just making it look good ie the way it is set out?

I tend to make a table, fill in the details and then make the table disappear.

I go onto fiverr there are plenty of people who do amazing cvs you have to send the bare bones and they will make it nice and shiny. I used a guy from abroad and he was amazing. I have been out of banking for a long long time was nervous about returning and I start my new job 1st October. I am delighted. If you would like me to give you his name I need to log into my other computer as my fiverr password is saved on it.

I paid him less than 20 quid and he completed the task in less than 24 hours.

Yes please, that would be amazing! Thank you

ChatGPT is great for this - and free!

his user name is Kamran N or Kamran1k. He is not from the Uk and he does a fab job and very fast. I just sent screen shots of my prev cvs which were long winded and boring, he sent it back and it looked so professional

look up here https://www.askamanager.org/category/resumes for sensible advice on what to put on a CV (resume in America) and how to format it etc. and all free.

Another vote for chatgpt! Set up a free online account, then ask it to generate a sample cv for the volunteer post you are interested in.

Thank you all
Much appreciated
