    My CV is due in on Friday but my student records one says my nationality is Northern Irish and doesn't come up with my picture.

    I'm not sure how to change the nationality part.
    Does anyone have any idea?

    I presume it's pulling details from SI so maybe call to the SAA front desk and ask them to change that and see if it updates on the CV?

    Hey guys.

    Just wondering could anyone tell me if I should put down incomplete college courses on my CV? For example, I did one year of a 3 year course in WIT but failed my exams and never went back after the first year.

    Would it be best not to mention this at all or should I put it on my CV?

    You should not put it down as they might ask you why didn't finish the course.

    Maybe I'm just naive but I'd put it down. And if they asked in an interview what happened I'd just say it didn't suit me, I was too immature at the time or some shíte but I learned from the experience etc.

    But that's just me....
