Hello, finally I decided to try and search for some job as a translator...
I know it won't be easy and I know there are dozens of other translators out there who have more experience and qualifications than I do, but hey... I had to get started sooner or later!
And the time has come as I'm left without work for the whole summer...
I've just uploaded my CV and cover letter and would like... See more

Hi Alessandro, welcome to proz.com. You can find some useful tips on writing a freelancer CV in the Howto section (from the Community menu), and many other suggestions for getting established.
I gave this presentation at the ATA Conference in Orlando, and I think you may find some of these tips useful.

It's completely garbled (at least on my computer: MS Windows 95, MS Word 97). One more reason why it's a good idea to have a PDF version of one's CV available.

Yeah, I know. I've used OOo on Linux to write this first version and I decided to put it online as a .doc file so that other colleagues could edit it (which in fact happened).
The final version will definitely be a pdf file (even though I would have much preferred an html file...).
