Guidelines for Writing Numbers and Amounts

● General Rule: Write out numbers from one to nine, and use numerals for 10 and above.
○ Example: "Managed a team of five people" vs. "Managed a team of 12 people."
● Consistency: Be consistent throughout your CV. If you start with "five people," don't
switch to "5 people" later.
● Dates: Use numerals for dates and follow a consistent format.
○ Example: "Completed project on 15 July 2023."
○ Alternative Formats: "July 15, 2023" or "2023-07-15," but keep it consistent.
● Percentages: Use numerals followed by the percent sign (%).
○ Example: "Increased sales by 20%," "Achieved a 95% satisfaction rate."
● Large Numbers: Use commas to separate thousands and larger units.
○ Example: "Managed a budget of $1,500,000," "Supervised a team of 1,200
employees."
○ Consistency: Use the same format throughout your CV to avoid confusion.
● Decimals and Precise Figures: Use numerals and decimal points for precision.
○ Example: "Improved efficiency by 3.5%," "Reduced costs by $1.25 million."
● Phone Numbers: Use a clear and consistent format for phone numbers, often with
spaces, hyphens, or parentheses.
○ Example: "+1-234-567-8900," "(123) 456-7890," or "+44 123 456 7890."
○ International Numbers: Include the country code if applicable.
● Ages and Years of Experience: Use numerals.
○ Example: "10 years of experience," "20-year-old technology."
● Salary and Financial Figures: Use numerals, and include the currency symbol if
applicable.
○ Example: "$50,000 annually," "Increased revenue by €10,000."
● Academic Grades and Scores: Use numerals and maintain a consistent format.
○ Example: "Graduated with a GPA of 3.8," "Scored 85% in final exams."
● Ranges and Spans: Use numerals and hyphens or the word "to" to indicate ranges.
○ Example: "Worked from 2015-2020," "Held positions ranging from manager to
director."
