Italian CV and Cover Letter patterns

The most used curriculum is the one in European format, as it allows uniformity of information between people of different nationalities or who have completed studies in different countries. It also allows companies to have a single and clear tool in which skills are identified regardless of the country of origin and the place where the qualifications were obtained. This does not mean that it cannot be modified according to the different job offers and that it is always advisable to detail it in detail.
The curricula can be customized, and made engaging with particular references to one’s interests or personality, they can also be created in video form. It always depends on the applicant’s nature and must be in line with the role for which you are applying, and for this purpose, it would be useful to have various types already ready.

The European Curriculum Vitae is important because, on the one hand, it can enhance experiences and training courses at a universal level, without cultural distinctions and belonging; on the other hand, its standardized model allows companies to have a single and clear tool in which skills are identified regardless of the country of origin and where the qualifications were obtained.

The sections of the European CV consider the areas of greatest importance, essential to provide a complete profile of the candidate to spend on the job market even across borders. The sections are divided into:

  • personal data
  • work experiences
  • education and training
  • personal skills (including foreign languages)
  • interpersonal skills (predisposition to work in a team, etc.)
  • organizational skills (coordination experiences, for example)
  • technical skills (use of computers, equipment, machinery)
  • artistic skills (music, writing, drawing)
  • Other specific skills are then required, such as possession of a driving license, further information of particular relevance (indicate references, for example), and any attachments to be presented (examples of works performed in the case of professions such as art director or graphic designer).
