The time has come on my degree for us to submit our portfolio, as well as a personal statement and Curriculum Vitae (that's a Resume to the Americans )
I've been doing okay on the portfolio (Getting to terms with pretty layout, My Boyfriend is a great and patient teacher in PS <3 . But I hate writting, and some of my pages require a little explanation 9_9 uurrgh)
But now for the CV - have I mentioned that I've never written my own CV before?
In the past, my older sister would use her CV as a template for me, and change the information for me while I sat in wonder and watched. Occassionally later I would change and add things, making sure my Mum and Sister had meticulously checked it before I printed them out for my job hunts around the mall.
That CV was for Retail and Office; 'real' jobs,
Now we need to create a 'design' CV for creative jobs. My sister pointed me towards some Awesome CV templates on Monster dot Co dot UK, My fave was this one:
http://career-advice.monster.co.uk/.....o/article.aspx
This appeals to my eye
Working out my CV in this Template has really helped me concentrate on whats really important in my experience section.
However, This being a 'design' CV, it would bad on my part to use Word, and to be honest, I don't like how little space there is on this cv to show my Internet work!
So I thought up this, my Internet and Work lives running parralelle with my education, to TRULY show active I have been in my life; just because I have many patches of Unemployment, doesn't mean I that I wasn't working my ass off during those times.
This way I can show that; this is my record, this is all of me.
p.s. That's a quick doodle of me in an animal suit, I've been trying for years to come up with my own totem/logo/mascot/fursona/ident and you know what? There are just too many things I want to be, but paramountly I want to be myself.
