Write a CV that gets interviews

The structure

1. Name, phone, email, city (no full home address, no ID number).
2. Profile: 2–3 lines on who you are and what you bring.
3. Experience: newest first. For each job, 2–4 results with numbers ("served 60 clients a day", "raised sales by 20 %").
4. Education: diploma, school, year.
5. Skills and languages: English, French, computer tools, driving licence.

Make it strong

• One page if you have less than 10 years of experience.
• Copy key words from the job advert into your CV (if true).
• Save as PDF named "Firstname-Lastname-CV.pdf".
• Use a professional email address, not a nickname.
• Ask someone to check spelling: mistakes cost interviews.
