Ask HN: Advise on CV, etc?
I've been unemployed for about 3 months and am about to be homeless. I've been applying for jobs for the last 3 months unsuccessfully. I'd really really appreciate someone with some knowledge looking over my CV and past cover letters to perhaps find out how I can improve things.
Over the last couple of weeks I've been rejected at the application stage so I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong. I would offer some money but I don't have much left. I can spare $10 for a decent critic, beyond that you'd have my genuine thanks. I'm barely sleeping and beyond desperate. Thanks.
