Would you put the OnlineBookClub on your CV?
Here's the thing, my local bookshop is hiring seasonal staff, and I would REALLY love to try working there.
I applied last year and was unsuccessful.
Since then, I have tried to do more relevant things. For example, I am volunteering at a charity bookshop now and have joined this place to learn how to write reviews.
Is it worth mentioning that I am a volunteer reviewer? I am only level one, although my reviews are pretty decent (I mostly lose points due to punctuation mistakes and not the content).
Thanks for your time <3

CV is Curriculum vitae - used in England. It is a summary of a person's experience and qualifications. This is similar to a resume in the U.S. The main difference would be that a C.V. is meant to be a full list of an applicant's qualifications whereas a resume is a brief targeted list of skills and achievements.
