Task 1a: Professional CV

                                               Task 1a: Professional CV

The Curriculum Vitae is a way to give, to a potential employer, an overview about your qualifications, experiences, education and what more you believe would be interesting to present. In dance auditions, when usually hundreds of girls send their applications, I've always tried to make a short and clear CV, choosing the information that I believe would be appreciated by the Company. Depending on the repertoire and artistic vision of the company or other type of work or project, I adapt my CV. Also, when I send a cover letter to a Company, I make sure that it is formal and shows what interest me about the Company, trying also to present a bit of my qualifications.

As a CV changes according to where is presented – or posted - here at the Blog, I tried to make it more detailed. At the “About me” part of the Blog I tried to create a more casual and personal way to present myself. You can also check my Network Dance Profile which includes my CV and Audition/Dance Pictures as well: http://www.networkdance.com/user/home.php?uid=2867
