Below are some resources that will help you in your job hunt for India.
Indian CVs should be typed on a maximum of two pages. Arrange and type your
CV in a chronological order starting with your first job and ending with your
most recent position. Include your name, address, e-mail and phone number at
the top, but never include place of birth, race or religion. Discrimination
laws are not very strictly enforced in India so carefully consider what goes
in and stays out of your CV.
‘Education’ is very important in India so make sure you clearly describe this section. Include examination grades giving dates of attendance, study emphases, diplomas and degrees. State additional courses or training and special skills such as computer programs in which you are proficient. Mention your native tongue and describe level of fluency for the other languages with reference to the spoken and written levels.
One more thing to bear in mind is that CVs in India are often kept on file for lengthy periods. Hence, ensure that your contact details are likely to remain accurate in the foreseeable future. A daytime phone number, with the international access code and e-mail are most important. Since it is common to apply for a job through the Internet, make sure that your electronic CV is easily scannable on a computer screen. Never attach any official documents, like diplomas or testimonials to your application. To see a sample of an Indian CV, click here.
