Where can I get a CV template for a mother returning to work?

Guest

I am a mother who is looking to return to work and I need to seriously
up-date my CV. I am looking for a template which is appropriate to someone
who has been out of work for a decade (or more!) but is a graduate and has
undertaken further training whilst bringing up my family.
Can anyone help?

I'm sorry, but I understood this to ge a "general" questions newsgroup for
Word???
CV templates are a word aspect, and i wasn't asking for job hunting hints,
just a template. SO your reply was completely unhelpful and vaguely
patronising.

You took the question out of the realm of a "general" one when you specified
that the template you wanted was for "someone who has been out of work for a
decade (or more!) but is a graduate and has undertaken further training
whilst bringing up my family." If you can't find anything in the
Microsoft-hosted template gallery at
http://office.microsoft.com/templates/default.aspx?, then JoAnn's advice is
relevant. And FWIW, it comes from someone who has recently been in the job
market and has found a good position.

We get a lot of questions about "templates," and in most cases it is content
that users are interested in rather than formatting, which is all a template
is designed to provide.

Funny thing is that my resume isn't much to look at formatting-wise. It's
really basic. No fancy fonts, no graphics - just Times New Roman and a few
tables. I wasn't selling how prettily how I could format a Word doc - I was
selling my skills. And I did good job of it too. I'm a happy camper!
