For this assignment, i had to create/design a graphic design Curriculum Vitae (CV) or resume. Using Adobe Illustrator i created a resume that best suits me.
















I began by opening a new A4 size artboard, then using the guidelines, i made a bleed space for the CV so that the printing edges are accounted for.

















Then with tool like pen tool, rectangle tool and ellipse tool, i created the basic background for the CV and also added an area for my name and picture.
















I added my picture to the circle.
















Next with the text tool i added my name, job application and a personal introduction to the CV.
















I added my academic qualifications.

















I put in my skills according to my level of knowledge (as indicated by the stars created with the star tool).
















I also added my personal interest in order to help the employer get to know me a little better.













Finally i added my personal contact information and social media accounts.
