Spanish Resume

A Spanish resume or Spanish CV differs greatly both in layout and content from the UK or US version. However one thing that does not change is its importance!

A professionally constructed and detailed resume can be the difference between getting the Spanish job interview or not! Do not worry though as here we explain how to go about preparing your CV so as to stand the best chance of being selected for interview.... and hopefully gaining employment in Spain.

Spanish resume: Do´s & Dont´s!

Whilst the rules regarding the presentation of a Spanish CV can depend on who you talk to if you follow the points below you will not be penalised.
