Re: Your Advice on my Résumé
Just adding to what Soapy has said. You have also listed all your referees names and telephone numbers which might not be a good idea either.
Great resume though.

Even though I'm officially 'retiring' from HR in two days time, I'll be happy to review for you.
Cheers,
Nicky

Re: Your Advice on my Résumé
Fabs,
I think your cv is just fine - my only advice would be to try to keep it to three/four pages if you can. There are bits that could be cut down but this is personal preference - let me know if you'd like me to be specific and I'll PM you.
Other than that, your career statement is good, cv layout is straightforward and uncluttered, and most importantly, your cv sells you well!
I know there are supposed differences in terms of how people lay out their cv's in Oz compared to the UK, which I can't comment on but I generally review between 20-30 cv's a day so I can only comment on what make a good cv from a reviewers perspective!
Hope this helps!
