Bonjour, Miriam, There are many ways to compose a CV. The first question is: for what sort of work (professional, academe, the trades) are you looking for? That will help determine the structure of the CV. Then, there are at least two ways to approach the CV. One is to do it chronologically (2005-2008 I did this; from 2009-1012 I did this), the other is to do it functionally (so, in that case, list major skills, and then provide examples of successes you've had in solving problems using those skills). Neither one is particularly more right than the other, but depending on the sort of job you are looking for it might make a difference. The most important thing for your CV is not to talk about what your job was, but instead talk about how you did it--what you accomplished, where you succeeded, and why). As for the cover letter, it's usually for me the first thing I use to judge whether or not I want to hire someone. If they cannot write a cover letter, then I'm usually not interested in speaking with them. And it's not whether or not they are writing particularly well, but whether or not they have anything interesting that's not in their CV to tell me. Cover letters are a chance to let people discover a little bit of who you are and how you think. Let me know how else I can help. Bonne chance! Peter

Hello, Miriam! I can't give you and advice about cv and cover letter, well, i'll look into it. May be i'll dig something out. You speak very good for the person that has difficulties with english.
