Please be aware that this is an example. Use it as a template to help generate ideas and structure your own CV but avoid copying and pasting. Your own CV needs to be original and tailored to the job you’re applying for.

Start your chronological CV with a concise statement demonstrating your motivation for applying for the job. While it’s important to list your educational achievements and qualifications, you only need to mention relevant modules.

When it comes to your employment history, recruiters are interested in any relevant experience, no matter the level so don’t leave anything out. Alongside your duties, be sure to mention any successes, with a brief description of what you did.

Volunteering is worth adding to your CV, especially if it adds weight to your skills or if it demonstrates skills and experience that you haven’t gained elsewhere. The same applies if you play a sport or hold membership to any clubs or societies – activities like this show another side to you.
