CVs

[Deleted member 348]

Hi! I thought I'd start a forum for applications which require only a CV and cover letter with little guidance. I'm currently thinking about how long my CV should be, how much detail to include about my experiences, and how exactly to date - dd/mm/yyyy? Or is it acceptable just to include mm/yy?

I've blacked out most of the content, but you can see the structure of my CV.

Your CV should be a maximum of two pages. There's no set way you have to date, but make you sure keep it consistent. I used months/year.

For your experiences, I think it's important to just stick to the facts of what you did. Then you can expand on it and link it to your skills in your cover letter.
