Begin with the work you want

Choose the kind of role you are applying for before editing your CV. Read the responsibilities closely and identify the experience you already have that is relevant.

Show the contribution behind the title

Describe what you did, who it helped, and what changed. Use specific examples and accurate numbers where you have them. A clear account of your contribution is more useful than a list of broad qualities.

Make it easy to read

Use familiar section headings, consistent dates, and a simple reading order. Keep your most relevant experience easy to find. Check that your contact details are correct.

Keep it yours

Tools can help organise and refine your writing. Review every suggestion so that your CV remains accurate and sounds like you.
