This should be done in a concise and clear way, companies generally cannot devote much time or money to meet and interview all persons who wish to cover a job in it. Therefore, the curriculum will often be the only option to contact the company and through him we must ensure that the company knows that se are looking for employment and to interview us. CV STRUCTURE AND CONTENTS A good CV should generally contain the sections below, though, keep in mind that they have to adapt to the position being applied for. The right way is to design as many CVs as positions we want to apply for. Personal data This section should include, at least the following contents: Name and Surname Complete addresss, not forgetting code Fixed telephone (and mobile if you have one) email and professional web, if you have one Education Training is the second part to be dealt with in a CV. You should include studies (education) in reverse chronological order, starting with the last position you held. Foreign university must be included if so, but not schools before entering college. These should only be included if they have been special schools, for example, a French school, English, German, or US. Courses, training, masters, postgraduate and others related to the position should also be mentioned here, in order of importance. In all cases the name of the course should be mentioned, as well as a brief description of contents, the institution where it was carried out, finishing date, number of hours or credits when referring to University studies or similar.
