Additional tips on how to choose a CV template:

• Use a template based on your career goals and relevant experience.

Should my template be in Word or PDF format?

Whether or not PDF or Word is preferred, can be a debatable topic. However, the most crucial part is ensuring the layout is correct and that the content is relevant. The part that becomes difficult is formatting your CV, such as moving sections around, trying to fill white space, or making it fit onto one page. With our CV Builder, you can create a CV in minutes rather than struggling with formatting.
