    I'm finishing my B.A. this year and am in the process of tidying up my CV. I saw that someone had put on another CV:

    B.A. Training and Education, NUI, Galway, 2008 (Expected)

    Could I do this with my B.A.? Is this normal procedure?

    Thanks in advance.

    I've seen it on a fair few CVs. However most of them just put in their education part, the name of the course they're doing and then under dates put 2004 - present. I think that's more common. If I see the person had written expected on the CV I also think it looks a bit pompus! It's up to you though, it also depends on what kind of role you're going for. I've seen both ways in the past.

    That's the way I would do it. In my cover letter I would state when I'll be finished my course/available full-time, or something like that.

    Cool. Thats what I'll do. Thanks for the speedy replies. Any comments on the CV services of CV Ireland? Might use the free review service once I've this finished.

    I'm not a big fan of CV services to be honest, I think CVs from them sometimes look very similar. If you have any questions about how to word things on your CV you're more than welcome to PM me. I see a lot of CVs in a week so might be able to help you out!
