This is great and I think I can help as well from a slightly different view point(not to steal any thunder!).
I'm head of development for a search related company and as part of my role review all incoming CV's(with advice from one of my senior devs) as well as handle the most of the interviews.
If you'd like two perspectives(Recruiter who will work to get you an interview and HoD who will ultimately hire you) feel free to send them over to me as well. My email is in my profile though I can only honestly help if you're targeting development roles.
Same disclaimer about time though, I will try to do any I get through over the next couple of nights though.
Edit: If you could include what type of role you are targetting(tech startup, agency, finance, etc) it would really help with my advice.
I don't want to steal your thunder stealing but I am so excited to see this that if either sanswork or KoZen get swamped or if anyone wants a third set of eyes I would happily offer my critique. I am an educator in the US. I teach our department's professional practices course. In graduate school I gave a seminar to the graduate college on CV development. I ran a small company for someone for 3 years and did all the CV/resume reviewing. My area of training is as a visual artist. Prior to my university work I did a lot of freelance design work for museums, galleries, art agencies and artists. I managed CV's for artists and galleries. I actually advised one gentleman who had a 91 page CV. My professional experience here at the university has been in the development of curriculum that address visual organization of information. This is all by way of saying I can best offer a critique from this perspective. I'm not tech illiterate. I do work with HTML and CSS regularly. I started learning PHP this year as a new years resolution. I started teaching myself AppleScript 11 years ago and I'm proficient with it. But, I'm not offering to review these from the same perspective as sanswork or KoZen, but from another professional who has a lot of experience with this.
As a caveat for those who might think I'm looking for teaching examples for free, I promise I'm not. Just really want to help out. Same disclaimer about time. I've already done some mark up on rdamico's CV on crocodoc if you want to take a look at some of my quick remarks on his.
Well I've definitely gotten hit. For everyone that has sent a CV through I'm going to spend a few hours going through them in more detail tomorrow night(AU time, already 2am here) before I send replies though I have hit them all quickly and made first impression notes already.
It would be very interesting if sanswork and KoZeN could throw up a quick blog, where each blog post contains:
(1) the original CV; (2) the CVs formatted as each of them would recommend; (3) a few points from each highlighting why the changes were suggested. I'm sure a handful of representative CVs could be chosen and the proper permissions obtained. Might be too much work or simply not of interest. I'd like to see this though. Let me know if I can help in some way.
