How to write and how not to write a CV?

Guides on how to write a CV can really be found a dime a dozen online. But what about how not to write a CV? There is a handful of important points that you won’t find in standard guides. See if you know them all already!

Let’s start with what the information to include in a CV.

Every CV should contain basic personal details (name, town) and contact details (e-mail, telephone number). However, you do not need to include information on your marital status, nationality, number of children or your full address

Important!

Recruiters often copy the email address from your CV into their databases, so don’t alter the character continuity of your email address, don’t include any extra characters (sometimes an extra space added for aesthetic reasons can result in an email being sent to the wrong email address). There is nothing worse than being informed after some time has passed that a recruiter could not contact you.
