How to Write a CV: My CV as an Example

Al Salam Alikum
As you see below in the example a compelling summary that catch an attention of the reader and that can
be read in only 7 seconds ,No More, then the experiences with some details of what the tasks I have done
and my achievements, then education with details of the degree and the background or specialization.

This is the main important element, however personal details are important, I like to do Chronological
CV rather than functional since there are no gaps, you can add certification and Professional
development courses, references, links to social media like linkedin and many others,sometimes it is
important to add English language test results like IELTS ,it is important to follow the grammar, spelling
and punctuation mark I have learnt in the lecture.

The next step is to revise the below example using what I have learnt in the course, thank you for the
valuable information.
