The most important thing is to write a professional and clear CV
We recommend that you list your work experience/education in a chronological order with the most recent on top
Make sure that all dates are correct

It is good to add your photo to the CV, although not necessary
Highlight your strengths and abilities such as computer knowledge, languages and other skills that are useful for the position being applied for
Include references and specify whether they can be contacted or if you should be notified in advance
It is very important to have someone read over your CV to get feedback and review spelling
Once you have written your CV in Word, it is advisable to save it as a PDF file or use a ready-made template such as those available at canva.com
