HOW TO WRITE THE PERFECT CV TO BE HIRED FOR
AN INTERNSHIP ABROAD WITH AIESEC
Your CV will only be as good as the information
you provide. Be prepared for CV success with this
comprehensive list
Writing the perfect CV can be a nerve-racking and time-
consuming endeavour, especially if you’re unsure where to
start or what to include in this important document.
However, with a little preparation, you can ensure your
final CV is the best it can possibly be.
Whether you’re planning to use a CV-writing service
like or give it a go on your own, it’s important to take some
time to prepare for your CV rewrite. After all, your CV will
only be as good as the information within it.
Gather the following details before the CV-writing process
begins to ensure you or your writer has all the necessary
information to create a powerful CV. Then you’ll have a
document that effectively tells your career narrative and
markets your qualifications to help you secure your dream
job.
Contact list Although it may seem pointless to note, there are certain
factors that must be taken into account when writing your
contact information on a CV. For example, do you plan to use a
nickname or your first name on all your job search documents?
Choose a peofessional email address and phone number to

include in your resume. I recommend creating an email address
with your name dedicated to your job search activities and
using your mobile phone number, as this allows you to control
who answers the phone and when.
It is no longer necessary to indicate the number of your

property and your civic address on your CV. If you are looking
for a job at a distance from your home, you should only include
the wilaya and commune at the top of your CV and the country
if only you're appying for internships/jobs abroad. In addition,
do not include your marital status or date of birth, this
personal information is no longer desired by employers.
TOPIC HIGHL
Your online presence

Did you know that 93% of employers will search your profiles online
before deciding whether to interview you? Save time and make sure
they find the most appropriate profiles to improve your employability
by including the links that matter most to your work on your CV. More
likely, this will include your LinkedIn profile, your personal website, or
your online portfolio.
If you have avoided creating a LinkedIn profile so far, it's time to bite the
bullet. Click on the link to learn how to write the ideal LinkedIn profile
for your job search. If you've already created a profile on LinkedIn,
update its information to your new resume and personalize the URL for
your public profile.
If your work requires social media expertise, you can also include links
to these relevant accounts. Before deciding which links are at the top of
your resume, make sure the content of each is professional, work-
related, and up-to-date.
Remember that your online presence must complement your resume
and support your business goals, not sabotage them.
Do your research
A perfect CV is carefully written with a specific internship/ job target
in mind. If you have not yet defined your career goals, now is the
time to do it.
Once you have set your goals, search online for at least three job
postings that match the type of job you are targeting. The location of
each job posting is not relevant; For the purposes of this exercise, all
you need to do is worry about the job description and its
requirements.
Then copy and paste the text of each job into a Word or Google
document and highlight or bold the phrases in the list describing
your experience and skills. This will help or help your professional
writer identify the qualifications that should be prominently listed in
the CV.
Make a list of all the tools and software that you know in your field
of study and that are relevant to your current job/ internship search.
This list should include anything from programming languages such
as Java and Python to softwares like AutoCAD, SolidWorks,
Photoshop, MS Office Pack ...
If you are multilingual, be sure to list each language you speak and
your level of proficiency (for example, basic, proficient, native
speaker, etc.). Indicate a foreign language on your resume only if you
feel comfortable speaking that language at work or during the
Technical Skills interview process.
After reviewing the vacancies you are interested in and having
discussions with professionals currently working in the field of your
choice, you may realize that you need to increase your proficiency in
a skill or tool. particular to improve your employability. If so, check
out sites such as edX or Coursera for free or low cost online courses,
or browse YouTube for educational videos.
List all the positions you have held in the last years. Start with your most recent post and go
back. If you recently graduated from university, indicate your internships and the jobs you
held during your studies or college. For each position, note the following information:
Indicate the name of the organization, the URL of its main website and the
Employee info
place where you worked for this employer.
Include the month and the year. You or your professional resume writer may
Dates decide not to include the months in the list of your dates of employment, but

information, keep in mind your current job goal. What elements of your
Responsibilities previous work are most relevant to the role you are actively involved in?
Include details such as the number of people you have supervised or the
territories you have covered, etc.
Brainstorm about the achievements of your work and your major

contributions that have benefited each of your employers.
Achievements Quantify your work whenever possible. For example, how did you help reduce
costs, generate sales, complete projects earlier than expected, etc.?
If you have an existing resume, include only the new details in this section.
There is no reason to repeat the information already in your current CV.
VOLUNTEERING
EXPERIENCE
Have you been actively volunteering with a non-profit
organization? Skill-based volunteering is a great way to

obtained or for additional training opportunities you have done since
you graduated from university.
