CV Guide

How to tailor a CV to a job description without turning it into a generic document.

If your market uses the term CV, the same targeting logic still applies: read the job carefully, prioritize relevant evidence, and adjust the document so the fit becomes obvious quickly.

Use the employer's priorities to shape the document

A tailored CV should highlight the experience, tools, and outcomes the employer is signaling most clearly. That usually matters more than making the document longer.

Keep the document credible and focused

The strongest tailored CVs are specific. They reflect the job description without sounding copied, inflated, or disconnected from the candidate's actual record.

The same workflow still works for CV searches

A resume-focused product can still work well for global applicants as long as the copy and examples make that clear.
