Writing a better CV
Part 3
More than one version?
Most successful people know what type of job they have wanted - so they guided their own career along those paths and could therefore write a CV that reflected not only what they had done - but jobs they would be suitable for in the future.
If you really are suitable for more than one type of job, then you ought to think of having more than one version "in stock".
On the other hand, there's nothing wrong with "tailoring" your standard CV for each job that you apply for. You may have qualifications that would lend your skills and experiences down either of two specific avenues. Just make sure you put your more relevant experience further "up the page" for the job you applying for.
Remember which CV you sent for each job!
Keep note (perhaps a spreadsheet) of each job you applied for - and which CV you used. Take a note of the agency - and the end client. INSIST that the agency tells you the client name. If your CV ends up on the client desk from more than one agency, through no fault of your own, you are more than likely rejected. Clients don't want "agency squabbles".
