There has been some discussion elsewhere on BAJR forums about whether units who ask for CVs to be kept on record really keep them on record or not etc etc and I was thinking.....(and please feel free David to step in and stop this if you disagree cos' I realise it could end up costing BAJR advert monies)....
Anyway I was thinking, maybe there are units/employers out there who are unable to offer work at the moment, but would like to take this opportunity to be one step ahead of the game come the upturn and have CVs on file. Bearing in mind that there seem to be lots of very good archaeologists out there at a loose end at the moment. Maybe those employers who genuinely keep CVs on file would like to take the opportunity to remind unemployed archaeologists that for the cost of a postage stamp/e-mail you can register an interest in future work?
Maybe David something could be arranged where employers post adverts requesting CVs even if they don't have jobs to offer right now....(As I am in work right now, I'd be willing to make a donation to offset the cost of such a service, if the service were offered gratis...)
