A Good CV Writing Program
I would request recommendations for such a thing, preferably free or "Trial Period" software as i plan on resigning from my current employment within 48 hours and will require a new CV to take to prospective employers.

You can have my job. You are more than ****ing welcome to it. And the salary that goes with it.
No you cannot have my house. It is not mine until such times as a member of my immediate family passes away and their much contested will is resolved.
And i dont drink.

Re: A Good CV Writing Program
Sanity has just prevailed, and i have realised that requesting something remotely serious on GD was not the best choice i have made today.

Re: A Good CV Writing Program
I spent the whole damned weekend rewriting mine, recommending some 'get CV'd quick' program would shit in the eyes of that good work.

Re: A Good CV Writing Program
I dont think there are any really good CV writing programs you can get for free, as the level of intelligence it would need to stop any CV it writes looking like it was written by a program would stop it being free (thats an appallingly worded sentence, but I am very tired). The best approach is to put in a bit of effort and write it yourself, there are sites where you can get advice on what to put in all over the place.

Re: A Good CV Writing Program
Writing your CV yourself is your only option. Make sure its accompanied by a good covering letter which you create for every job your apply for, which covers more information about what you feel you could bring to the role, instead of just what you've done in the past.

No one hires a fool who can't write his own CV.
