Well nobody is forcing you to apply! I'm just offering a job and giving some adviSe to help others.
That's the problem, you knew these people and what they were capable of. Imagine that you receive a CV (amongst the tens if you're the hiring manager or hundreds if you're HR) you received that week from someone you don't know and it's obvious that they only spent 10 minutes throwing together a generic CV with loads of spelling and grammatical mistakes (i look over the odd spelling/grammatical mistake, we all do that!) and didn't clearly explain what they did in their career but included the phrase "i have great attention to detail", be honest with yourself, would you think "wow, this person is worth an interview i bet they're great"?
By the way, i've been an aircraft mechanic/technician for 36 years, 23 of them in the RAF, so, yes, i do know what a bl00dy spanner looks like!
Apologies about the experience thing. I hold my hands up. And I get everything that has been said. And what you have said.
I think your original post may not have come over as you expected it (bit like the txt message that went wrong?)
Hope you get some good boys and girls in your company

No problem mate, apology accepted.
Yeah, it would seem that it didn't come over as i expected. Believe me my only objective was to just make people aware of a job opportunity and offer some advice on what i find frustrating with CV's so that others can benefit from it and at least get the chance of an interview (wherever they apply to).

I don't really see why all the hate on this thread, it read to me like some good CV writing advice.
