Amerikaanse Sollicitatiebrief en Curriculum Vitae (=Résumé)

Deze pagina geeft voorbeelden van een Amerikaanse sollicitatiebrief (= application letter) met een bijbehorend curriculum vitae (résumé). Het chronological résumé heeft de voorkeur wanner u solliciteert op een baan die goed aansluit bij uw werkervaring en opleiding tot nu toe. Het functional résumé kan worden gebruikt als u liever de nadruk legt op uw algemene vaardigheden (= relevant skills).

Let op de plaats en inhoud van de persoonlijke gegevens (minder uitvoerig dan in een Nederlands c.v.), en meteen daarna het onderdeel "Werkdoel" oftewel "Objective" (= Job Objective / Professional Objective).
