CV Essentials: Tips for Crafting a Standout CV

Do’s

• Keep it Short: Use concise sentences to keep your CV clean and easy to read.
• Clearly State Your Tech Stack: Mention the specific tools, languages, and technologies you’ve worked with to give a clear picture of your technical expertise.
• Mention the Domain and Type of Project: Highlight the industry (e.g., Fintech, Web3) and project type (e.g., Automation Testing, Security) to show relevant experience.
• List Achievements: Include specific accomplishments that demonstrate your impact in previous roles, such as awards, successful project completions, or quantifiable improvements.

Don’ts

• Avoid Bias Triggers: Leave out personal details like profile photos, age, or graduation year to reduce potential bias in hiring.
• Steer Clear of Overused Phrases: Avoid generic words like "comprehensive," "extensive," "amidst," or "ever-evolving" to keep your language direct and authentic.
• Skip Hobbies and Character Traits: Focus on professional skills and achievements instead of personal interests or character descriptions, which may not add value to your application.

Following these guidelines will help you create a sharp, professional CV that stands out for the right reasons!
