How to craft an effective CV ? In this episode, our guest Stephen Fisher, member of the EPFL Career Center, will try to give you the tips for crafting an effective CV. Stephen will try to break myths like : « Should I only write my CV on a single page ? »

As students ourselves, we are as curious as you are about this subject! Here are the questions we asked Stephen:

  • What are the main myths or received ideas I need to resist?
  • Why is it important to change the way you talk about your experience?
  • Today when I send a CV I always send the same to each company, so how can I customize my CV for each application?
  • Most of the students don’t have much professional experience so how can we stand out if we don't have an extraordinary educational and/or professional background?
  • What design for my CV?
