Hi all,

I'm looking for advice on how to write my CV to the standard which is expected by a potential Swiss employer. I did a search on the internet, but it came up with mostly rubbish, but I thought there would be a lot more relevant information from here anyway.

So far I have heard all sorts of things, from putting in a photo of yourself to attaching school reports. I would love to know what they actually want to see, I mean just how many years of school reports do they want? (How many years could I even find?)

So if anyone has experience and advice, or even a rough template which people could view to get more of an idea it would be really appreciated.

Also if you have any tips to make your CV stand out from the crowd here please share!

Thanks for your tips and advice


I just use my UK style one.

I still have my UK-style attitude to agents when it comes to supplying references. Sorry BoyD, you know what I mean...

I can supply chapter and verse if they ask... but no-one has yet.

Personally: I reckon (and there are far more experienced bods than me here) that the UK style CV is OK for the multi-nationals who are used to them.
