The rst thing you must remember is that a Curriculum Vitae is a serious document. The
possible employers expect to nd a CV written in a specic manner. They expect it to
follow certain predetermined form. It must be easy to read and be organized logically.
There are different types of Curriculum Vitae and all of them contain more or less the
same information (personal details, studies, complementary courses, languages, skills, job
experience, and other pertinent information).
Follow the advice and suggestions below and you are going to produce an effective
CV:

You must print the information.
Your CV should not exceed 2 pages in length.
Including a passport size photo is not obligatory, but is advisable.

Never sign your CV. It is not required.
Never take things for granted. Explain everything in a clear and concise manner.
You must include a letter of introduction with your CV, especially if you are not
delivering it by hand.
