Writing Guidelines for Academic CVs

  • •Prioritize technical competencies: Order skill sets relative to matching keyword phrases in job descriptions.
  • •Focus on metrics: Quantify your results (e.g. page speeds, savings, sales figures) in your bullet highlights.
  • •Reverse Chronological: List experiences starting from the most recent to align with ATS filters.

Formatting Advice & FAQ

What is the difference between an academic CV and a standard resume?

A standard resume is limited to 1-2 pages and is optimized for corporate roles. An academic CV (Curriculum Vitae) is a comprehensive record of your scholarship. It has no page limit and must prioritize education, research publications, teaching assistantships, fellowships, and academic references.

How should publications be listed on an academic CV?

List publications in reverse-chronological order under a dedicated 'Publications' section. Use standard academic citation formats (such as APA, MLA, or Chicago) and bold your name in the author lists to help recruiters and peer-reviewers locate your contribution.

What is the best template for PhD and postdoc applications?

A formal, high-density serif template like Oxford Minimal or Chicago is ideal. Academic search committees expect clean layouts with double horizontal borders and formal typography that prioritize readable research histories.
