CIPD quals - old vs new?

Dear Forumites

Having obtained my "Postgraduate Diploma" back in the mists of time (2002 if memory serves), I often come across references to today's qualifications, levels 3, 5, 7 and so on and have no idea how they compare/relate to each other. I was job hunting last year and was rather miffed when I lost out on one interview because apparently I did not have "level 7."

How do the old qualifications compare to the new ones?  Pleased to say that I'm once again gainfully employed but just wondering for future reference!
