CV Structure & Content Checklist (PDF)

Not sure if your CV includes what recruiters actually look for — or what’s quietly holding it back?
Before rewriting your CV or paying for a full review, this checklist helps you spot the gaps quickly and confidently.

The CV Structure & Content Checklist is a clear, recruiter-informed guide designed to help you assess your CV section by section — so you know exactly what’s working, what’s missing, and what needs improvement.

This isn’t about templates or design trends — it’s about clarity, structure, and relevance.

What you’ll learn inside:

• The essential sections every CV must include (and which ones to remove)

• What recruiters expect to see in each section

• How to structure your CV for fast scanning

• Common content mistakes that weaken otherwise strong CVs

• How to assess whether your experience is clearly communicated

• What to fix before submitting applications

Who this checklist is for:

• Jobseekers unsure if their CV is holding them back

• Graduates and early-career professionals

• Career switchers reviewing their existing CV

• Anyone before investing in a CV rewrite or review

Why this checklist works:

Created by a recruiter who screens CVs daily, this checklist mirrors how hiring managers actually evaluate applications — helping you self-review with confidence before applying.
