    [Mods: I know this is probably in the wrong section but i need an answer in the next hour, and didn't know where else to put it. Feel free to move it after 10pm.]

    Basically my silly computer doesn't have a proper version of microsoft word or works, and i need a CV template ASAP, have to drop it into a place where there's a job going before 10pm tonight!! So i need a site and quick! A template that can actually edited.

    Any help much appreciated.
    Cheers.

    How about you just do it yourself? Its hardly rocket science.

    Personal details.
    Education.
    Further Education
    Employment
    References
    Personal interests

    Very clever!

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Download Open Office, it's an open source (free) version of Microsoft Office. Then go here for a bunch of CV examples.

    In a world where everyone needs the "perfect CV" and download them templates from the interweb why don't you really make yourself standout?
    I do mine in crayon. With a little personalised colouring at the bottom. I also attach a non-coloured in colour by numbers page for them to ask any questions on. I then list Jesus Christ as a reference (Hey the guy never says a bad thing about anyone and yet is still considered honest!)

    Well I can't share all my secrets (for free). G'Luck.

    Indeed. Don't use it to send something to your boss though.

    Not clever :(

    You have 37 minutes. I've done my own in less.

    That said, I didn't get the job.
