CV & APPLICATIONS
What should your CV look like for an international company in Poland?
Start with the role you are targeting. Your CV should make your experience easy to understand without asking the reader to guess what a job title or qualification means.
Start with two or three target roles
Compare a few vacancies you would genuinely apply for. Look for recurring responsibilities, tools and language requirements. Use those observations to decide which experience deserves the most space. Do not reshape your history to pretend you meet every criterion.
Make your contribution specific
Explain what you did, who you worked with and what you contributed. “Project follow-up” is less clear than “maintained the action plan, coordinated stakeholders and escalated blockers”. Include numbers only when you can support them.
Choose the language and keep the layout readable
Follow the vacancy instructions. English is relevant to many international teams, but it is not a universal rule. Use a clear hierarchy and check that the text still makes sense when copied out of your PDF.
Check before sending
Review dates, job titles, contact details and file names. Test your links. Keep an editable copy and adjust the summary and order of skills to the role you are actually targeting.
