HR manager CV: a sample, tailored to the job

HR vacancies come in two kinds: some want every part of HR (hiring, paperwork, training), others only recruitment, often at volume. HR managers read CVs every day, so yours has to answer exactly what the vacancy is after.

What the job ads keep asking for

  • A degree and 2+ years in HR.
  • Knowledge of the Georgian Labour Code.
  • Recruitment: posting vacancies, screening CVs, interviews.
  • Onboarding and settling in new hires.
  • Employment contracts, HR orders and personnel files.
  • Tracking hours, leave and bonuses; training and appraisals.
  • MS Office or Google Workspace; confidentiality.

The words a recruiter scans for

The CV almost everyone sends

A general CV, the kind most people send unchanged to every vacancy. It's only an example: the person, companies and numbers are made up.

  • HR results can be measured too: time to hire, new-hire retention, training scores.
  • HR managers read CVs every day, so yours has to be flawless: one format, precise words, no typos.

Student CV: a sample for internships and first jobsStudents often think they have nothing to put on a CV. In fact a summer job, volunteering and a university project are real experience, if you write them like jobs: what you did and what came of it. And every internship needs something different at the top.CV with no experience: a sample, tailored to the jobExperience isn't only a paid job. Helping in a family business, volunteering, running your own social media page: all of it goes on a CV, written just like a job. And because a first CV is short, every line has to answer this particular vacancy.Accountant CV: a sample, tailored to the jobMost accountant vacancies in Georgia ask for the same things: RS.ge, a named accounting program (FINA, ORIS or 1C) and Excel.
