On Tuesday 23 March 2010, Simon from Cherry Professional ran a very successful CV clinic for Qualified Chartered Accountants at the invitation of the ICAEW (Institute of Chartered Accountants).
The CV clinic covered all aspects of putting together a great CV and making it stand out from the crowd. A further clinic is planned for June in Leicester.
