Write a general CV #137

When applying for jobs, you should tailor your CV to the specific job you're applying for. But you generally don't make a brand new CV from scratch for every application. It's useful to have a base CV with most of the information, which you can adjust.

Prepare a CV in a Google Doc which targets the kind of job you're hoping to apply for in the future (probably a software engineering job).

Make sure to read the CV guide and follow its instructions, including checking the checklist.

When your CV is ready:

1. Run it through our automated CV reviewer and act on its feedback. If you're not sure about any of the feedback, reach out on Slack in #cyf-profile-review.
2. After you've acted on that feedback, ask someone to review it on Slack in #cyf-profile-review. Make clear in your request that this is a generic CV to use as a base for future applications.

Respond to any feedback received, and keep iterating until your CV is great.
