Hi Margie,

I'm refering to our meeting at the Job-center at Williamsons Sq., last week, and I'm enclosing
a copy of my revised CV, as agreed.

I've added a column called 'Personal Profile', on the CV, like you adviced me to do.


Is it right that you also want me to remove some of my work-practise, from my CV, since it's
many years since I worked in my first jobs. Isn't it valuable for new employers to also be able

to see which jobs I had, some years ago, to see that I've always been working/studying etc?

We also discussed cover-letters, and I thought I'd use something like the Person Profile on

the CV, as a cover-letter. What do you think is the difference between what should be in the
cover-letter, and what should be in the personal profile on the CV, by the way?

Thanks again for the fine advice in the meeting, and sorry that it took some days for me to

get this done!

Yours sincerely,

Erik Ribsskog
