Academic CV

An academic CV is crucial for showcasing your education and achievements. When creating a CV, it is important to select a suitable template.

2. Add the sections and your details for each section.
3. Select a suitable template and download your CV as a PDF. When choosing a color, opt for blue or light blue.
