How to write a CV/Resume?

We Answered:

The CV (resume, in American English) is meant to introduce you and your background to somebody who does not know you and barely has time to get to know you. It should present you in the best possible light, in a concise and well-structured manner. There are plenty of resume-writing guides out there, that can teach you to the smallest details how to write one. Their regular problem is that they do not agree with each other when it comes to details. This is why we have put here together a number of generally agreed guide-lines, plus some specific details that could help EE students. A regular CV for business purposes should definitely not go over one A4 page. If you intend to use it for academic purposes and not for a job, the CV can pass that limit, on the condition that you use the extra space to describe academic activities, like conferences, publications list, etc. A well-written CV shows first what is most important, but contains all relevant information. To this goal, we advise you to adapt it to your target (specific type of job or scholarship). Cut information from your CV only as a solution of last resort, but pay attention to the order in which you present it in your CV.


Print the CV on plain-white A4 paper, save some of the same type for the cover letter - did we say that you should never, but never! send a CV without a cover letter - and find matching A4 envelopes. If the announcement does not say anything about a cover letter, you still should send one. It introduces your CV to the reader, attracts attention to certain parts of it that you want to bring to light, or mentions aspects that for some reason could not be listed in your CV.

To make it look neat, we suggest you use one of the Word pre-made formats, unless you are a computer-savvy and feel confident that you can produce an even better-structured and easier-to-read format. You will be able to introduce you own headers in that format; below we have a word of advice for those most-often met in a CV.

Personal details - here you should include your birth date, contact address, email, telephone number and nationality. In case you have both a permanent and study address, include both, with the dates when you can be contacted at each of them. Personal details can be written with smaller fonts than the rest of your CV, if you want to save space. They do not have to jump in the reader’s attention - you will never convince somebody to hire you because you have a nice email alias! If your CV managed to awaken the reader's interest, he or she will look after contact details - it is important that they be there, but not that they are the first thing somebody reads in your CV. You should write your name with a bigger font than the rest of the text, so that the reader knows easily whose CV is he or she reading. If you need to save space, you can delete the Curriculum Vitae line on the top of your CV. After all, if you have done a good job writing it, it should be obvious that that piece of paper is a CV, no need to spell it out loud.

Objective - this is a concise statement of what you actually want to do. It's not bad if it matches the thing you are applying for. Don't restrict it too much "to get this scholarship", but rather "to develop a career in... " the thing that you're going to study if you get the scholarship. If you apply for a job, you can be even more specific - " to obtain a position in... , where I can use my skills in…". You can use a few lines to describes that specifically, but keep in mind that you should show what you can do for the company more than what the company can do for you. Writing a good objective can be tough; take some time to think about what exactly are you going to write there.

If you, the visitor of our site, are who we think we are - a young student, or a person who has just graduated, you should start your CV with your education. Very probably, at this age it is your most important asset. We suggest you use the reverse chronological order, since it is more important what master’s degree you have rather than that, very probably, you went to high school in your native town. No matter for which order you decide - chronological or reverse - you should keep it the same throughout the rest of your CV. Try to give an exact account of your accomplishments in school: grades (do not forget to write the scale if it may differ from the one the reader of your CV is used to), standing in class (in percent), title of your dissertation, expected graduation date if you think this is an important aspect. There is no need to write all of the above, but only those that put you in the best light. Are you not in the best 20% of your class? Better not to mention ranking then, maybe you still have good grades, or your school is a renowned one. In any case, do not make your results better than in reality - you cannot know how this information may be checked and the whole application will lose credibility. Cheating is a ve

how can write a proffessional cv (personal history)?

We Answered:

The words curriculum vitae come from Latin and literally mean "the course of one's life." Your CV is a biographical summary of your life and is usually written to describe details of education and achievements in chronological order.

Your CV is very important in the first step of marketing yourself to potential employers. For some jobs employers can receive hundreds of applications, so it is vital that your CV has that "something else" that makes it special and attracts the reader. In the world of graduate recruitment larger organisations receive thousands of CVs, application forms and covering letters, so think about what is going to make what you write stand out from the crowd. A well written CV will be something that paints a picture of you that will match your skills and achievements as well as your future ambitions.

Always write your CV in the first person e.g. "I have" rather than "He has." Alternatively you may omit the "I" altogether if you prefer. Check carefully for inappropriate jargon and substitute more user-friendly words when you can.

Ensure that you write about your achievements. Don't write about things you are not so good at - it might be unwise to mention things that could count against you when the employer might not have considered them anyway!

Always check and double-check your CV or application form for spelling errors and punctuation. Having read through thousands of CVs over 20 years, it is amazing how many have obviously not been spell-checked or grammar-checked properly before being sent off. Think about the employer's likely reaction if they feel you have not even considered it important enough to check your CV or application form properly.

Check for common grammatical errors such as spelling "practice" (the noun) when you mean "practise" (the verb).

Finally, remember that however perfect you (and we) may feel your CV is, it will be still down to the individuals who read it to judge what is valuable to them. There is no such thing as a 100% perfectly written CV. The reality is that, however professional they are, whoever reads it will have their own likes, dislikes, prejudices and preferences.
