Job Search Questions & Answers from the Experts at CV Genius

How long does it take to write a CV?

How long it takes to write a CV depends on many factors, including:

how much work experience you put on your CV
how readily available information about your past work experience is
how badly you want the job (you should spend more time editing and customising your CV for a job you really want)
if you already know how to write a good CV

To maximise your chances of getting the job, you shouldn’t try to write a CV from scratch for a job application due in 1 hour or less.
