Functional CV template and example

In times of seemingly decreasing job opportunities and increasing numbers of applicants, the ability to stand out from the crowd is essential in the hunt for your first, or next, job.

The starting point for most employers these days is submission of a comprehensive, personalised and impactive Curriculum Vitae (CV).

There are many types and layouts of CV’s available, one being Functional CV’s (focused on specific skills and abilities with slightly less emphasis on your employment and career history)

The template for this type of CV is available here for you to purchase. However, the template is only a structure designed to help you formulate the layout of your CV.

Therefore, in addition to every CV template you choose to buy, comes a free completed sample of a CV in that template format, plus a free book called “Comprehensive guide to writing an effective CV”. These additional documents will help guide you through the language and pitfalls that can be encountered when writing or updating your CV template.

If you don’t wish to purchase the template(s) the book can be purchased as a separate entity here too.
