This CV follows the conventions common in Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Poland and much of Europe: a personal details block with address, phone, email, date of birth and nationality; an optional passport-size photo box (35 × 45 mm); a short profile; and work experience with dates in a left column and duties on the right.

Page two covers education and training, a language skills grid with Common European Framework (CEFR) levels A1-C2 for listening, reading, speaking and writing, digital skills, driving licence, certificates and awards, and hobbies and interests.

All fields are pre-filled with sample text you type over. Add your photo in pdfty's online editor, then save the CV as a PDF. A4 by default, US Letter available.
