1. Agencies will want to check your CV before they forward it to companies - they want it to get the highest chance of you getting a job through them Most important then is a simple layout so they can focus on the words - layouts with tables (even if it doesn't look like a table) are plain annoying and will detract from what you have to say. Give a profile of yourself in this style: Hard-working, reliable team-player who likes to succeed. [Miss out the words "I am a"] Talk about what you did at work/work experience/anything useful in this style: Answering e-mails and taking calls. [using "-ing" ending and bullet points] So for a successful agency CV the content should stand out, not the design - bright colours and funky layouts tend to make it look like you don't have much going for you Formal style, bullet points, headings, black&white, no tables :) Good luck!
