  1. Thanks
    It’s just red. Doesn’t really suggest passion. Use any colour you want but make the whole word the same colour.

    Having a lengthily CV works for me. It’s got me a lot of contract work.
    its the opening paragraphs that are key to success. The rest is just supporting material.
    Many recruiters and employers will use software to cull applications. A human may well never see your CV.
    This is why each job application needs an adjustment to your CV to ensure the keywords are prominent in the initial summary.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanging_punctuation - where the punctuation hangs outside the left margin of the text though there seems to be more of a **** to the punctuation style we see most places. must admit i don¨t really use hanging punctuation at all 
  4. Thanks
    Ok, as a designer I'm going to get brutal to help... Hope it does
    The leading under "Gjorgjevska Emilija" is terrible, that whole section feels too squashed together. spacing issues all over, spacing should look the same between everything unless there is a hierarchical reason for it to be that way, which in this case there is not. increase font sizes, better still find some clearer fonts. You have at least 4 fonts, try reducing them to a maximum of 3 Don't have your dates the same colour as the text, I would suggest darkening up the text to separate them from the dates. not enough contrast between the subtitles and the content. remove the heart at the bottom of the page, you're not in school now. under skill and interests, separate the items better, * just don't work
  5. Thanks
    to add to the comments above...
    bulleted line under title tracking is too loose. phone number etc. dont need pipes between because the icons act as separators
    too many styles and highlighted bits especially the first part
    why grey text? i understand for screen use (even then not enough contrast) make it black. Consider also using hanging punctuation i.e. bullets
    you have a hypen or possibly a minus sign in your date ranges when you should use an ndash – (though it could be the font too, hard to say)
  6. Thanks
    Don’t care about the design.
    Use simple fonts and and black throughout. 
    Many potential employers will read the summary the start of the CV to see if your skill set matches their reqirements. If it doesn’t then they will throw it in the bin.
    So your first two paragraphs needs to be a well written summary.
    The rest should be expanded to detail  what you did for each employer.
    If it needs to be longer than one page then that’s how long it needs to be. Mine is now 3 pages long.
    Also:
    Bin the tag line below your name
    Move the dates to the left below the name of the business.
  7. Thanks
    For whom? What does the job spec ask for? Your CV needs to match the skills they are looking for.
    An example of the marketing guff:
    "Measured and performed data analysis of campaigns’ results"
    This means nothing. What campaign? What measurements? What data analysis? What did you do next?
  8. Thanks
    Can’t really advise without knowing what you are applying for.
    however, it just looks like a bunch of marketing buzzwords. There is no substance to any of those nebulous claims.
