Bon ça a été long, surtout dur de m'y mettre ! Je l'ai envoyé à des personnes susceptibles de pouvoir me corriger, dire ce qui ne va pas etc... Si vous avez aussi des astuces à me donner, corrections à apporter à mon cv, bien sûr n'hésitez pas à me contacter, c'est un peu pour ça que je le mets ici ! Par contre la mise en forme n'est pas exactement comme celle-ci.

It was a hard labour, over all hard to start ! I send it to people who may be can correct me. If you have advises or corrections, contact me of course, that's why I put it here. However, the form here is different that in my word file...
