Title.
I have a lot of skills I use in my hobbies and helping others out, I study tech shit, physical\digital art and other languages, but my current employment is so basic it doesn’t need any of these things. And I have no in-paper proof I know them.
While writing my CV, I feel pretty lost. My position doesn’t say anything at all, and I don’t know how to show I have experience editing photoes, sound and video in Adobe, coding shit in different languages when it’s needed.
Do you have some guides to write a good CV? Or how to write in your occasional works in unrelated fields?
upd: One fucking doctor in my field asked me why I’m still there with all things I did they know about. I didn’t know what to answer.
upd2: Thank you Lemmers, you rock.
They get 30-40 on average. It takes me the better half of the day to review them all. People have work to do; you don’t. Customise your resumes for the application and sometimes that means a letter in certain situations goes a long way.
If you’re sending out the same resume you spent a few hours doing, week after week, you’ve done five hours of work in several weeks. You can’t expect people working 40 hr work weeks, where reviewing resumes is an addition task, to then start writing personalised responses to every person.
Nah, bullshit, I’m not unemployed. The entire point of a resume is to give you a clear, concise summary of my abilities. You want more details? Ask questions.
Fuck your cover letter.
Fuck your “one way interviews”
That’s bullshit. I work too. Im looking for opportunities, not companies that design their application processes to cater to the people desperate enough to waste 1hr+ of their time for the chance for an actual interview.
Fuck that and fuck you too.
