Model CV
Sometimes the fastest way to write your own CV is to see a finished one first. A model CV shows you what "done" looks like: real section headers, realistic bullet phrasing, and a layout that's actually been used to apply for jobs — not a theoretical template.
What a model CV should show you
A useful model demonstrates a few things at once:
- How much detail is "enough" per job (usually 2–4 bullets, not a full paragraph).
- How to phrase achievements without exaggerating — specific numbers beat vague claims.
- How sections are ordered when someone has 5+ years of experience versus someone just starting out.
- How contact and header information is formatted without clutter.
