Could you share two of your favourite stories related to this?
(For anyone unaware like me)
What about work life balance? (yes, it's a personal project, but still)
I've always been a bit perplexed as to how registrar's are created. How could I become a registrar?
Any advise or resources to explore this very open question would be wonderful.

- make it a one page CV - remove any work experience that's not relevant - write in active voice about each experience. Quantifying your contributions - remove hobbies, particularly anything related to religion. It's not relevant, and is recommended not to include such personal info in your CV. - only show your undergraduate degree. No one cares about GDE (unless applying to grad school) or your high school grades. - remove personal interests; no one cares. It's distracting from selling your work experience. - remove references and write "available on request". Background check happen after interviews. - remove languages unless relevant to the job. - remove volunteering experience; why on earth have you included CouchSurfng there? - remove your address. Too personal. - add link to your LinkedIn. - remove objective. This should come through in your experience what you're interested in. - remove those images. They offer no value to the ready and take up 20% of both pages.
You find jobs by applying. That simple. Your CV must sell your work experience as valuable to the employee and current yours does not.
Assume employers will spend 30 seconds skimming it before deciding if you will get a chance. Your current CV does not cut it.
Take Facebook as an example, when you request your personal data, they present what is linked in their database to you, which is of course not where anyone mentions your name. Who is to say that my name (Paul Smith) identifies me and not some other Paul?
This is particularly true in the UK where there's a big push for "Open Banking" where banks must provide APIs for developers.
This would remove your dependency on IE if it was all done from the command line :)
