Writing Effective CV

The first step in getting best employer is to make smart CV. The CV of experienced civil/structural engineer must have Power Words.
Power words can help you highlight your skills and abilities. Because your CV is about you to
begin with, you don't need to write the words “I”and “my”this is repetitious and clutters your CV
with unnecessary words.
For example: “I have good customer service skills”you could use instead “provided fast and
efficient response to site technical queries.”

Some examples of power words
Achieved, Established, Co-ordinated,Created, Supported, Arranged, Attended Developed, Designed, Marketed, Negotiated,Edited, Helped Planned, headed

Important Point in making effective CV
  • Never insert photo in CV
  • Only provide E mail address and Your Mobile / Land line Number
  • Only put qualification above bachelor/diploma no need to put Class X or XII %
  • Mention your soft skills ( Team Player etc.)
  • knowledge of International standards / Good Engineering Practice / Engineering Softwares /tools and Procedures

2. Style:
