+1 - I've got four(basic) CV's - one for management jobs - one for sales jobs - one for technical trade jobs(electrical/mechanical) - one just for "a" job.
I re-tailor each one for each specific job.
Talk up whats relevant and tone down whats not for whatever line of work you're applying for - but don't lie!!!
Good luck!
I work in the fragrance manufacturing industry and we've never been busier, we are exporting 80% of our production as there's such huge demand from all over the world. We are recruiting all the time and expanding. Why not look around for fragrance and flavour manufacturers in your area?
(Manchester BTW - much nicer than London and surrounded by great cycling country.)
Good advice, but do it for interviews too. Maybe you sound too qualified as welll!
You say you'll have to move away from your girlfrield. Could she relocate as well?
That's a hard thing to do! I can't change my voice! And I don't think recruiters would take kindly to me if I "played dumb".
Potentially, but not immediately. She has a career and she doesn't want to move straight away. Her job entails maintaining specific territories (i.e. countries/regions) which necessitates she build up contacts which she doesn't want to abandon. I'm not upset our jealous at all - in fact, I wouldn't want her to give up her job to follow me somewhere.
But maybe 'over-qualified' is just a kind way of saying you are not the person they want? What other qualities might they need that you haven't demonstrated?
