How to write a CV that gets noticed

Your CV is your first contact with an employer, and it is often read for only a few seconds. So every line has to earn its place.

1. Keep it to one page

If you don't have much experience, one page is enough. Employers read a clear CV, not a long one.

2. Put the most important things on top

Name, contacts, a short “About me” (2-3 sentences), then experience and skills.

3. Show results

Not “worked in sales”, but “increased sales by 20% in 3 months” — numbers convince.

4. Tailor it to the vacancy

Use the words from the job post — both people and systems look for them.

5. Check for mistakes

Typos look careless. Ask someone to proofread it.

6. Send a PDF

Save your CV as a PDF so the layout doesn't break.

When it's ready, choose your field in JobRadar AZ and suitable vacancies will come to you by themselves.
