The search begins

The summer break is over and my job search goes into full swing. First of all I decided a fabulous CV was the way to go. I had been adding to my same old CV format for years and it was dated and portrayed my skills as narrow. So the decision to go to a professional was easy to make and would give me the boost I needed. After an interview lasting an hour, my draft CV was written. My skills were clearly defined and key achievements outlined impressively, followed by work history. After a few edits, I was delighted with the results and felt ready to go. This was just the bait I needed and I felt pretty keen and confident that something would turn up. I scoured the internet and located lists of email addresses of nearly every primary school principal north of the harbour. Perhaps the easy way to go would have been a mass email expressing my work availability but decided to email each principal independently. Over the next few days I soldiered on and soon had sent an email with my CV attached to 120 primary school principals.
