I'm uncertain what has the best effect when writing a CV. Should it be addressed as the 1st or 3rd person or should it defy grammar and comprise statement such as "Managed the ..", "Was responsible for ....", "Lead a team of .....". Bearing in mind the CV needs to get through a number of gates before it gets to the budget holder/recruiter i.e. the Agency Researcher, the Agency Account Manager, the Client HR department then the Dept Manager.

The latter is the best way to go - was responsible for, lead a team of etc. In your personal statement you can refer to yourself in the first person.

First person, definitely not third person and your 3rd suggestion is just plain bad grammar
Good luck xx

Always the 1st person, it's your CV.

I would either go with first person or do your third option with "Was responsible for..." Good Luck in your job search!

Definintely write in the 1st person.

Also - don't just mention what you did - but also what you learnt from it.

e.g. Lead a team of.... where I learnt important skills about how to work effectively in a large group of people, yada, yada.

Good luck with your job applications!!

I was made redundant a few years ago and was sent on a course to improve my CV, interview technique, etc.

I was taught it should be a mix of 3rd person (ie in personal statement, highly motivated individual, etc) and your 3rd option (used in points under career history - managed, etc). Sounds more professional and removes the repetitive I did, I this, I that.
