atw: Re: CV and interview advice

I have only three CVs so you win!  I don't bother with my first 20 years in
the workforce - that has simply disappeared into the eons of time, or the
"launching a network of women's clubs for a charity" or "launching a new age
magazine" or "running a health retreat".  They are just gaps.  

The longest gap was in 2001 after the crash - when I resorted to
telemarketing - and no-one will ever find out about that!

I went through another bad spell of not finding contracts - not even getting
interviews, until I realised that those first 20 years, included for a
particular role where it was pertinent, were still there.  I swore at myself
for my stupidity, removed all traces and got an interview the following
week.  Co-incidence?  I think not.
