Help! CV template help needed!!

[Netty]

Well I have been sat here for hours and last night an all...!!!
I am looking for a cv template and have surfed the web but keep coming across either complicated ones or ones you have to pay for.
I am so out of practise with cvs
Anyone able to give me advice as to what to put for personal statement? what exactly are they looking for??
Thanks!

The best advice I can give is to change your CV to fit the job, don't just have one general CV.

Don't just make statements such as - Excellent computer skills - without backing it up with an example.

I know how you feel, Netty! The problem I find is different websites will give you different advice and there's no real set way of doing it! For example, some websites tell you to write in the 1st person, others are adamant you should write in the 3rd person!

Anyway, he's a few websites I normally use for advice....
S1Jobs Career Guides
Monster (Free templates)

If I think of any more, I'll post!
