I prefer not to post my CV on a public domain, can you post your email so I can send my CV? Thanks. I am learning web and JavaScript now so if my skills are not there yet I would still like you to hold on to my CV to reconsider me once I have gained more experience.

That is a weird response.

Why can't you post your CV in the 'public domain'? Also, no employer is going to 'hold on to your CV' while you upskill.

This person might not want the fact of their former homelessness tied to their real name, which posting their CV on a public site would do.
Fair enough. In reality though, its a poor strategy to not volunteer information, if you are looking for a job. It just creates another obstacle.
