A good CV (CV stands for curriculum vitae) is an important tool for job seekers. This provides a summary of education, work experience, skills and achievements.
A CV must contain some information, including contact information such as your full name, e-mail (preferably your private one), mobile number, address, date of birth or age, nationality, marital status. You can also if you want include your LinkedIn address. It is also not unusual to have a picture of yourself, but it is not a requirement.
Below you will find seven tips that can make your CV better:
1. Keep it concise: A CV should be no longer than two pages, so make sure to only include relevant information. You can see what’s relevant based on the job advertisement for the job you want to apply for.
2. Use a clear, easy-to-read layout: Use headings and bullet points to organize your information and make it easy for the reader to navigate your CV.
3. Use action verbs: Use strong, active verbs to describe your responsibilities and accomplishments, such as “developed,” “implemented,” or “managed.”
4. Include education and work experience: List your education and work experience in reverse chronological order, starting with your most recent experience.
5. Highlight your skills and achievements: Be sure to highlight relevant skills and achievements, such as awards you’ve received, certifications and projects you’ve worked on.
6. Use specific examples: Instead of just listing your responsibilities and duties, give specific examples of the work you’ve done and the results you’ve achieved.
