pleasing on the eye, with plenty of white space.
 Do include a punchy personal profile to really grab the
recruiters attention; encourage them to read on and want
to meet you in person.
 Do ensure your CV is easily readable. Avoid cramming in
too much information and cluttering the page with fancy
fonts, borders and shading.
 Do make sure your CV is no more than two pages in length.
List your employment history chronologically. The past ten
years should suffice with the main focus on the last five
years.
