Reviewing a CV
Check evidence, relevance, readability, and accuracy.
A strong CV helps a recruiter understand the candidate's fit quickly. Begin with the target role, then check whether the profile, skills, experience, achievements, and education provide evidence relevant to that role.
Replace vague responsibilities with specific work and outcomes where they can be supported. Use clear dates and consistent job titles, explain important gaps honestly where appropriate, and remove claims that cannot be verified. Avoid including sensitive personal details that the application does not require.
Automated checks can spot structure and wording problems, but they cannot confirm whether experience is true or predict a hiring decision. The candidate remains responsible for every claim and should adapt the CV for each serious application.
Questions
CV checker FAQ
How long should a CV be?
Use enough space to present relevant evidence clearly. Early-career candidates often need one or two pages; experienced candidates may need more where the content remains relevant.
Should one CV be sent everywhere?
No. Keep a verified master record, then tailor the profile, skills, and evidence to the requirements of each role.
Can AI invent stronger achievements?
No. AI may help phrase genuine experience, but invented employers, duties, figures, qualifications, or outcomes are dishonest and can damage an application.
