Industry CVs
Technology & IT CV writing
Tech recruiters scan for stack and scale, then hiring managers read for what you shipped and what changed. We write CVs that serve both readers.
In short
A strong technology CV lists your core stack clearly, then shows what you built or improved with scale and outcomes: users, uptime, latency, cost, release speed or revenue. Keep it to two pages, avoid skill-rating graphics, and link to GitHub or a portfolio where relevant.
What hiring managers look for
- A clear, honest stack: languages, frameworks, cloud, data and tooling
- Scale: users, transactions, data volume, team size
- Outcomes: performance, reliability, cost, speed of delivery
- Ownership: what you led, designed or decided
