Anyone know of a fantastic FREE C.V. template?

I have been searching for a job for a few months now but I haven't found anything. I want to give my C.V. a revamp but haven't a clue how. I have tried searching on Google for a free C.V. template but they all seem a bit boring!


I think the contents of my C.V. is ok as I have been told by an agency I registered with what to do it like!


Please Help!

Anyone know of a fantastic FREE C.V. template?
I totally understand where you're coming from. I was job hunting a few months ago, and I was constantly looking for resources to see how I can spark up my CV.


So I've got some links for you, but before that, a couple of tips:


1. Avoid paid consultants. Wherever you go you come across people telling you how withput their help (which is very reasonably priced...NOT!) you won't be able to get a job because your CV will be binned streight away.


Don't buy any of that nonesense. Read as many CV examples as you can, and very quickly you'll get a feel of what works for you.


2. Do try to open the CV with a few bullet points about what you are and what you bring. Strong, assertive sentences will set the tone for everything that follow.


3. Illustrate your skills through your experience: you didn't just *do* something, you utilized skills for that. So draw attention to that.


4. Adapt your CV and cover letters for the positions you're applying to, and incorporate key words from the job posting. When people read that they go: OH! exactly what I was looking for.

Ask them!
Reply:If you have the correct contents, then all you need to do is change the layout using different fonts, bold, in the centre, underlined and maybe put a border around it - they seem to look quite good (well I think so anyway!)
