The Europass website is decent, for a sort of ready-made template format. You can put in all your information and get a CV out in a standardised way

I found Total jobs useful for not only CV information but also interview tips. Things had moved on somewhat since my last interview x

Sympathy, I used to get that, descent interviewers should see around that, they can be thin on the ground though. Just remember if they want to see you there is a reason you attracted their attention

I find myself preferring the Zoom interviews, because then I can be in a place where I feel safe, so to speak, and have a few notes prepared. Small silver lining of all this mess!

Talking yourself down won't help, please try to be more positive. I was 20 months looking once just don't give up

I’m truly sorry you lost your job OP. You can search Google for free CV templates or follow the advise of other members that shared recommendation.

Perhaps an area that can help you prepare for interview can be found here: https://opportunity.linkedin.com/prepare-for-interview

They’re also offering free courses (with certifications) which you can do while you’re job hunting - make sure you do have a profile l, it does help significantly getting a job in today’s market - indeed is a good alternative too.

All the best OP

All good points, recruitment agencies also scan LinkedIn so put a good profile on there
