Just wondering does anyone have a good CV template?
I have a work permit and once we are settled in Montreal I would like to go job hunting but cant seem to find a good template to write a CV for Canadian Employers?
Thanks!

"Most employers prefer a chronological resume, where a job seeker's career progression is outlined in a clear and easy-to-follow format," says Kathryn Bolt, president of Accountemps' Canadian operations. "While professionals who are in a transition or have lengthy gaps in employment may favour functional resumes, they should keep in mind that most employers still would rather see the work history presented in a chronological format and any career challenges addressed directly."

Do they have some special exceptions for IT resume's? as I know when it comes to IT CV's in the UK the usual rules generally don't apply.
I am only 4-5 years into my IT career at the moment and my CV already spans across 3 pages.
