40 Fantastic Resume/CV Templates to Show off Your Skills

Posted: 15 Aug 2010 03:00 AM PDT

Resume’s / CV’s have traditionally been bits of paper that sum up you and your life achievements in relation to a job to help you find employment. However, with technology continually evolving, we are no longer limited to text on a piece of paper. Now-a-days we have the opportunity to be much more creative with how we present ourselves to interviewers, so why not make use of it.
