    After reviewing a pile of them (from potential print designers), I now prefer the simpler, classic cv. When I once though "designing" them was the shit — a student myself not long ago — I found myself despising any attempts I saw at being clever.

    In the end, readability wins. A cv is pure information and nothing more, and it should communicate that. A good graphic designer will recognize that the function of a cv is to be extremely legible and that reinventing the wheel is completely unnecessary. Keep it clean.
