My CV has been checked by my careers advisor and he seems to think its a very good CV. It's just so difficult as the market is not the best for jobs at the moment. Thank you for your reply.

During my time at university, I was the Vice President and the president of the university forensic science society and I was employed for 3.5 years as an outreach demonstrator, promoting science in schools. In coming to apply for jobs I am finding it increasingly difficult to find work due to lack of experience or over qualification. Does any one else have this problem or advice to resolve.
