🕐 [Time to read = 4 min] We all know how writing your CV can be boring, time-consuming, and overwhelming. We are coders, not writers, right? Unfortunately, the skill of selling yourself is vital in this cruel capitalist world... And since our registration process requires sending a CV too, we decided to help you: in this pretty short post, we collected some life-saving hacks on how to write your perfect CV. Let’s start from the education • Write full names of your major and university. You’re not a “CS student at NU”, you are a “Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, Nazarbayev University” • Start from the most recent education and include the graduation year and month, or expected time of graduation. • Include GPA if it is above 3.0 Now it’s time to mention your experience • Write about places where you worked, starting from the most recent, including dates • Fully spell the company names. Not “Apple” but “Apple Inc.” • Write what YOU did in that company, what was the result of your work. For example, instead of “added multi-touch gestures for 3D workspaces”, it is better to write “integrated multi-touch gestures for 3D workspaces by creating a deterministic finite state machine for HTML events” • Include metrics! If your work increased the efficiency of the website by 15% or saved the company thousands of dollars, you should mention it Show your projects • Work projects, coding bootcamp projects, personal projects - projects that are relevant and you are proud of • Write about technologies and languages you used • If applicable, include metrics. For example, if you built an app that a few dozens of people downloaded, then you need to include this information • Include links to your projects Don’t forget to include extracurricular activities • Again, start from the most recent, and list all the relevant activities you had: hackathons (like HackNU 😉), coding contests, awards, club participation, etc. Some other thighs worth mentioning • The structure of your CV has to be well-organized - use a simple but clear template, bullet points, understandable sectioning • Check the resume for grammar mistakes, punctuation, and readability before sending it • You should not be modest but don’t lie or exaggerate - an interviewer will easily detect it • Limit yourself to 1 page Though only these tips may not be enough to write a CV, they can boost your chances of impressing employers. Ask your friends, groupmates, colleagues to review your CV, look for examples of good CVs on the Internet, and most importantly be confident, show yourself in the best possible light. More tips and tricks Good luck! 🍀
