Writing an effective C.V doesn't have to a difficult task and as long as it's formatted correctly, the most important part of your CV is the content anyway. This app allows you to fill in your details and information and Resume Star will create a clean, correctly formatted PDF or DOC version of your C.V that you can email directly, post online, or print. 

Job Interview Q&A [ View App ]

Worried about that upcoming job interview? This app can help you practice answering those tough interview questions in a simplified mock interview format. You can watch as you are asked a tough interview question and get the opportunity to record responses to particular question to see how it would look to your interviewer.
