Here is an example of my current CV. It is used and adjusted for employment within the customer service/receptionist area. This copy is not the full version. I have taken out any personal information and normally, under each section within previous employment, I write a few notes about what the job involved and any particular skills/training that I gained.
It would also include referee details, but as this is a public blog, I've decided to remove them! I like to have my work at Disneyland Paris on my CV as it is something different for employers to see.. and an interesting talking point!
Along with educational and employment history, I think it is important to include information about yourself as future employers are often keen to know more about your personality and lifestyle.

I have studied ballet professionally. I enjoy all aspects of the theatre and performance: dance, musicals, classical music concerts and plays.

I love the outdoors, walking and keeping fit.
Hi Emily!
ReplyDeleteI really liked the structure and content of your CV. As you said it doesn't include all the information that has to be displayed for private and safety reasons which I understand.
Mentioning that you worked for Disneyland Paris in the past I believe that it will work in your favour; as the employee will find that interesting especially if you are applying for a job that you are involved with children!
