According to a survey carried out by the National Careers Service these are some of the CV howlers made by job applicants:
A 17 page CV including every detail from when the applicant was born
Use of wording that the person whose CV it was did not understand because he had paid a firm to produce the CV for him
Using an inappropriate email address e.g. iamgreat@
A CV typed entirely in capital letters
A company name spelt incorrectly throughout the CV
