    Hey, is signature on CV required or not really?
    I mean I am about to print 70-100 my CV's, do I really need to sign each one?

    Are you going door to door around shops?

    No, no need to sign

    Well my tactic was to go around shopping centres, shops, cinemas, and other businesses with open doors leaving my CV's around. Lots of my friends found job that way.

    Don't sign the CV. If you want to sign anything, write up a cover letter explaining why you're good for the job (make it somewhat vague if you want one cover letter to fit all the jobs you're applying for) and write that you're available to work immediately etc.

    Don't make it vague. If you really want a job go and find out who the manager of each place is. Write a letter to them, outlining why you would be an asset to their company. If you're taking a half assed approach you don't deserve a job.
