Why a Great CV Matters

Recruiters spend an average of 7 seconds scanning a CV. A clean layout, clear hierarchy, and professional fonts help you make that first impression count — before they even read a single word.

Step 1 — Pick a CV Template

Head to our CV Templates page and choose a layout that matches your industry. We have:

  • One-column classic layouts
  • Two-column modern layouts
  • Minimalist designs
  • Creative / portfolio CVs

Step 2 — Fill in Your Details

Click on any text block to edit it. Replace the placeholder text with:

  • Your full name and job title
  • Contact details (email, phone, LinkedIn)
  • Work experience (company, role, dates, bullet points)
  • Education details
  • Skills section

Layout Tips for a Professional CV

  • Font size: 10–12pt for body text, 14–16pt for headings.
  • Font choice: Inter, Lato, or Open Sans — clean and ATS-friendly.
  • Margins: At least 15–20 mm on all sides.
  • Colour: One accent colour maximum. Keep it subtle.
  • Length: One page for under 5 years experience; two pages maximum.

ATS-Friendly Tips

Many companies use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to filter CVs before a human ever sees them. To pass ATS screening:

  • Use standard section headings: Experience, Education, Skills.
  • Avoid text boxes or tables — use simple columns instead.
  • Use keywords from the job description naturally throughout your CV.
  • Export as PDF (not JPG) so the text is machine-readable.

🏥 For nursing & healthcare roles: Include your registration number, certifications (BLS, ACLS), clinical placement details, and any specialist ward experience. A clean, professional layout matters just as much as qualifications.

Step 3 — Export as PDF

When your CV is ready, click Export → PDF. Select A4 portrait at 300 dpi for the sharpest output. Download and you're done — no watermark, no premium paywall.
