CV Example for Manager

For those applying for managerial jobs, we will discuss how to create a perfect manager CV that will blow away the competition by following these steps.

1. Choose the right resume format

Select a format that best showcases your background. Some may choose to list all their job experiences in chronological order others might only list the relevant job experience you could do either, or you could choose to do a hybrid of the two formats.

Consider searching for a manager resume sample on Google to find a template to work off, or you can start from scratch in Microsoft Word.

2. Highlight your qualifications in the summary

Be sure to focus on qualifications related to being a manager, such as management experience, recruiting, hiring, and training. Refer to your target's job ad to ensure that you include relevant qualifications, qualities, skills, and experience. Use impactful action verbs to begin all your bullets.

3. Emphasize relevant skills

Along with highlighting relevant qualifications, there are also certain manager resume skills, both hard and soft skills, that you should include on your resume to make it stand out. Hard skills are more industry-specific, and soft skills are more general.

4. Tailor your language

If you include a manager resume summary at the top of your resume, then this is a good opportunity to tailor your language. Mirror the keywords that were repeated in the job ad. This might help you push through applicant tracking system barriers.

5. Fix any mistakes

Proofread, so many job seekers disregard this part of the process, thinking it isn't as important as the content that's in your resume, but it is. A recruiter or HR employee will often throw a resume away once they see one typo or grammatical error.
