The general form for CVs has changed a little over the years, but well-formatted, readable and concise are still relevant.
I agree 100% which is why I'm with AndyP in slagging off that infographic thing. I know that in certain creative/artistic jobs that kind of thing might be a bit more relevant but even then (IMHO) it's still way overdone.
Maybe it's cos I used to work in science, CV's there are simple and to the point – contact details, education, relevant work experience, publications, other interests/hobbies. The end. Two pages max.
