THE CV - advice for students (5m 47s)

This podcast is an interview (August, 2006) between an FE college I.T. trainer (Alan Carr) and Gary Cookson, the Human Resources Manager of Golden Gates Housing Ltd in Warrington, Cheshire, England. It addresses some common issues (including those suggested by an FE college careers officer) surrounding CV writing. The interview was conducted in a town centre workplace - hence the background traffic noise. This podcast has been created as a sample resource for Student Services advisors in UK colleges of Further Education. It is part of an LSN skills developent project, aimed at improving the I.T. skills of Student Services teams, providing them with useable resources and encouraging the further development of their own e-resources. (Two other podcast interviews are available discussing Letters of Application and The Job Interview.) Alan Carr, August 2006 http://dht.podomatic.com dht@darkhorse.co.uk
