How to use CV Maker in a few steps
CV Maker is built around an education-first layout, so your academic history takes center stage. Follow these steps:
Step 1: Add your personal details
Open the CV Maker and enter your full name, contact email, phone number, and location. This information appears at the top so committees and employers can reach you.
Step 2: Enter your education
This is the most important section in an education-first CV. Add each degree or diploma, the institution name, and your graduation year, starting with the most recent.
Step 3: Add your experience
List your work, research, or teaching experience. For each role, enter the title, organization, dates, and a few bullet points on your responsibilities and contributions.

If relevant, add your academic publications, presentations, and a skills list. These strengthen academic and research applications considerably.
Step 5: Review the live preview
The live preview updates as you type, showing exactly how the CV will look. Review each section and make any adjustments before exporting.
Step 6: Print to PDF
When you are happy with the layout, use your browser's print dialog (Ctrl+P on Windows, Cmd+P on Mac) and choose Save as PDF to generate a standard, shareable CV.
