Writing your CV 
A CV is a brief account of your life, designed to give a potential employer essential information about you.

All Cardiff Metropolitan University students have access to the Your Career e-module via Blackboard.  To find it just view your module list - see 'Access Your Career'.

Use the CV examples to help you create a first draft, then make an appointment with a Career Adviser for some feedback.
