    Anything to do with customer service,computer work,handling cash,interpersonnel skills...

    Although you have achieved a lot,being a cadet had nothing to do with the job your applying for... you can always put that in hobbies and interests...

    Hang on and maybe someone else will be able to be more helpful...

    You have a good c.v it just needs to be culled a little.

    Looks good... also.

    Cul the c.v back to a page or two.. keep it easy to read and spaced out...

    I've seen it happen many times where c.vs are binned because there is too much reading in them.
