Spelling and Grammar Check: Correct spelling and grammar are of absolute importance in an English Resume. Employers will NOT tolerate any mistakes. It is very important that a native English speaker checks your Resume before you send it to an English-speaking employer.

CVwriting.net can provide a full spelling and grammar check and suggest any changes to the content of your Resume in line with what employers expect.

Do not include a photo: Most English employers do NOT like to see a photo on the Resume and, in fact, including one could work against you. Only include a photo if it has been specifically requested for a particular job application.

English Language skills: This is a very important aspect of your Resume and your professional career. You must explain your knowledge of the English language under the ‘Skills’ heading. Describe your level of knowledge as one of the following:

• Bilingual – You can speak English as well as your mother tongue
• Fluent – You have a complete working knowledge of the English language, both written and speaking.
• Working knowledge- you have a good practical knowledge of English for professional purposes.
• Conversational – You can converse adequately in English with good comprehension.

English Resume Format:

Your name, address, telephone number and email address should appear at the top of your English Resume. Always use a capital letter at the beginning of a name including the name of a street, town or country. Do NOT put Resume or Curriculum Vitae as a heading.

Your Resume should be produced on a word processor, not hand written, and be available softcopy as a Word or PDF file. If you are printing your Resume you should use good quality paper.

An employer will scan your Resume in thirty seconds looking for keywords that are relevant to the vacancy he is trying to fill. Keep your Resume short and concise so that your positive attributes stand out. Your Resume should be no more than two pages long.

Do NOT use initials for company names or qualifications, as these could be meaningless to an English employer. Always write the words in full.

Headings:

1. Profile: This is an opportunity to summarize the skills and experience you have described elsewhere in your Resume. It is the first part of the Resume that the employer will read. It should be only one or two paragraphs long otherwise the reader may not go on to read the rest of your Resume. You should also include your career aspirations.

2. Achievements: list any special achievements from your career history or education that may make you stand out from other candidates. List no more than six.

3. Career History: This is a very important part of your Resume. The most common Resume format is written in reverse-chronological order. Start with your most recent employment and work backwards. List the dates between which you worked for each employer the name of the employer, your position and the location at which you worked. Write a short description of the company and then describe your responsibilities including facts and figures as much as possible.
