Explanatory Notes
a) The Directory will offer potential employers a free searchable online source of CVs.
b) Please read Notes [1] and [2] below when completing the CV, selecting “Principal Discipline” and
“Subsidiary Fields” carefully from the lists. These will form search terms for potential employers.
c) Enter “countries of experience” rather than general regions.
d) The CVs are intended to whet the appetites of potential employers. The proforma is therefore limited to 14
lines for work experience entries, aimed at keeping the CV to two pages of A4 when printed. Please enter
your most recent experience first and include just sufficient experience to demonstrate your skills.
e) If members have any problems, please contact the webmanager, Keith Virgo.
