Expat International CV
Expat CV Template — Relocation & Work Permit Ready
Expat International CV answers the three questions every recruiter asks a candidate from abroad before reading anything else: where you are, when you can start and whether you already have the right to work. It puts those facts in the header, then runs a conventional two-page reverse-chronological body in English.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about this template
Should an international CV mention visa status?
Yes. Recruiters filter on it early, and stating it plainly saves both sides time.
Which format should I use when applying to several countries?
Start from a neutral English A4 format like this one, then adjust photo and length per market.
Is the Expat International CV template really ATS-friendly?
ATS products and employer configurations differ, so this template cannot guarantee parsing or screening results. Check the layout and exported text, use accurate role-specific content, and follow the employer's file instructions. Any compatibility percentage shown on this page is not an independent test by an ATS provider.
Can I download my resume as a PDF for free?
You can export a PDF without a watermark. Review the downloaded file before sending it and follow the employer's requested file format. ATS products and employer settings differ, so no template or export can guarantee parsing in every system.
