Question 1

What goes into a CV and in what order?

Accepted Answer

Name and contact details, then a two line summary, then experience from most recent backwards, then education, then skills and languages. Keep it to one page if you have under five years of experience. Andalusi's templates arrive in that order, so you only replace your details.

Question 2

How do I write a CV that appeals to employers?

Accepted Answer

Tailor it to each role rather than sending one version everywhere, and mirror the wording of the advert when you describe your experience. Write each duty as a verb followed by a measurable result rather than a description of the job title. Andalusi has Arabic and English layouts whose sections reorder to suit the role.

Question 3

What achievements belong on a CV?

Accepted Answer

Whatever can be measured: a sales figure raised, a process shortened, a number of staff trained, a project launched with a result attached. Skip adjectives like hardworking, since they carry no evidence. Andalusi's layouts give achievements their own section so a reader meets them first.

Question 4

Where can I find ready Arabic CV templates?

Accepted Answer

Andalusi has CV layouts in Arabic and English, including ones suited to human resources, design and technical roles. Change the text and colours, then export at print quality or send it as a file. The Arabic layouts respect right to left flow, so the alignment does not break.
