Translation of a curriculum vitae (CV) into a foreign language

[rabia198]

All those who want to emigrate to another country or get a job in a company whose main language of communication is another (non-Lithuanian) language must translate their curriculum vitae (CV) into the required language. This shows our professionalism and activity in finding a job. A CV in English will certainly come in handy, but if we are looking for a job in a country where English is not the main language, we should translate our CV into the official language of that country. How to do this?

The Internet can provide us with the first help. We type “English resume examples” into Google and compare several examples of an English resume to see what it should look like. Sometimes it may happen that the CV used in the country we are going to is slightly different australia telegram phone numbers from the Lithuanian one, but these small differences can cost us our job. Therefore, it is worth finding out what requirements apply to a resume in that country. Let's discuss a few examples.

Examples of differences in CVs. North America
The first example is Canada . To increase your chances of getting a job, it is recommended to prepare your resume in both English and French. A Canadian CV does not use a photo, does not indicate date of birth, gender and marital status. This information would not only not help, but would also cause our CV to end up in the trash. This is because equal employment rights are very important in Canada. We cannot give an employer a reason to complain that we were hired because of our appearance or age, and not because of our competencies.

The same is true in the United States . A CV cannot include any information that an employer is not entitled to request. This includes marital status, political affiliation, religion, social security number, age, race and color, sexual orientation, etc. In short, any information that is not related to our work, but to our personal lives. This is overseen by a special Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.[2] ( Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, EEOC ). In the States (as in England), a photo is not included on a resume.
