How to prepare my CV before january ends

"It was enlightened, amazing the things I'd do since the last CV update."


How I did it: I couldn't find my old CV. I started from scratch using the generic CV we use at the office to submit as part of project documentation.

Then I did some research, the new CV should reflect what I'm looking on a prospect employers, so I made more emphasis on my role in every main project I took part. Also put a section with all the technical background.


Lessons & tips: -Decide who's going to be the receiver, and what you as him/her would like to now first.

-Start! it only would take like 10 minutes, but if you never do, you'll never have it on your hand.


Resources: -Google

How to record all the books i read

"God, I read a lot!!"


How I did it: There's a website called weRead, it has a facebook application (called back then iread). It really makes you easy to look for the books you have read and mark them as readed, reading, wanting to read, won't read, also allows you to chuck books to your friends, leave comments, tags and ratings.

Downside, there's no way to get that data back to you for other purpouses.


Lessons & tips: If you can't find a book you can import the basic data, if you can't see your edition click a small link under the cover that reads "show all editions".
