Excerpted from the China Career Guide
With the business environment in a
continuing state of flux, there are no rigid rules for the
submission of a résumé/CV (curriculum vitae). Generally, however, it
should be one page in length (or two maximum) and should include the
following: personal information, which is placed at the top of the
first page (i.e., name, address, telephone, fax and Email
information). A statement of career objectives may follow.
Under ‘Work Experience,’ the positions held should be listed in
reverse-chronological order, with the name and location of the
company, its field and focus, dates of employment, title(s), and
major responsibilities and accomplishments. Information that is
relevant to the position being sought and shows career development
should be emphasized. Any gaps in work history should be explained.
In some cases, the jobseeker may include reasons for leaving a
particular employer.
You’ll find specific examples of
cover letters and CV’s relevant to China in the complete China
guide.
