Ed’s Dodgy CV

The reptiles have dug up some old CVs of mine which appear to contain inaccuracies – in fact they do contain inaccuracies – but what of it? Who hasn’t told a porky-pie on a CV? Ed asks his diary.

I mean to say calling yourself Chief Engineer in a three man company where you’re the only engineer is hardly a hanging offence.

Unfortunately that’s not all.

An entry ‘Head of Module Development’ when I was an assistant buyer of multi-chip module substrates was a bit whiffy – the company is long gone but records and peoples’ memories unfortunately.

A description of myself as CTO at major company obscured the fact that I was CTO of a minor subsidiary.

‘Wanting to re-engage with a leading edge engineering role’ was not a totally honest reason for leaving after a strongly encouraged exit following an accounting  discrepancy on my exes.

The reptiles are having a field day with all this and my new colleagues have started looking a trifle askance.

The media don’t appreciate how much people like me have to give up when they leave commercial life for a stint in government service, therefore I feel it is my public duty to take out a super-injunction against anybody mentioning any of these insignificant peccadilloes.

Any reptile sufficiently foolish to ignore the super-injunction will be visited with the full panoply of the law imposed by my trusty legal eagles Messrs Sue, Grabbitt and Runne
