i get unsolicited applications and cv's all the time. they are mostly interchangeable because they all look the same. the ones i answer are different. they are the ones that demonstrate passion, committment and determination. they want to be archaeologists and, mostly, they are now. they range from oxbridge don's, EH inspectors, unit directors, specialist and the entire range of professional site workers. i am not being rude bonesgirl, i am just saying that if you are not sure, you might better look elsewhere. and to all archaeology undergraduates i would say, enjoy your degree, enjoy your time at uni, but you probably wont become an archaeologist unless you already are one
If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about answers
