Why Every Experience Entry in Your CV Needs to Be Carefully Crafted

When building a CV, many candidates focus on listing everything they have done, or the parts they are most proud of. While it is natural to want to showcase your achievements, this approach can miss the mark. Recruiters are not just interested in what you like to show—they want to see what is relevant for the job they are hiring for.

Every experience entry in your CV should be crafted to highlight the skills, tasks, and accomplishments that align with the roles you are targeting.

Making Your Roles and Responsibilities Relevant

It’s common for candidates to describe their jobs in a generic way, or to forget to highlight tasks that are directly relevant to the positions they want next. For example:

• A project manager might list “managed internal team meetings” but forget to emphasize “coordinated cross-functional teams to deliver client projects on time,” which is highly relevant for similar roles.
• A marketing professional might highlight creative campaigns but leave out measurable results like “increased lead generation by 35%,” which is what recruiters care about.

The key is to tailor your experience entries so that each role shows how your past work prepares you for the jobs you are targeting. Roles and responsibilities should be aligned with market needs, not just personal achievements.

The Challenges of Manual CV Optimization

Traditionally, this process requires analyzing each job description, comparing it with your experience, identifying gaps, and rewriting your CV entries. This is:

• Time-consuming
• Prone to human error
• Often delayed, taking days or even weeks to refine a single CV

Many candidates either skip this step or make only partial adjustments, leaving their CV less effective than it could be.
