Question

Is ok to add a humorous touch to your personal profile in CV?

Answer 1

It is best you don't

Answer 2

it probably isn't but you have no clue as to who will be reading your CV.  it might go over well with one reader and be irritating or unprofessional to another.

so if you're really serious about landing this job, u might want to stay clear of all gimmicks and just state the facts about urself in a clear, punchy, professional manner.

hope that helped!

could u also help with my question?  thanx
