Preparing your CV for Luxembourg
EURES describes a one- or two-page CV and emphasises accurate language skills. It recommends using the language of the advertisement unless instructed otherwise. It describes photos as conventional, which should not be read as a universal requirement.
Check the complete application
List each language separately and relate your experience to the vacancy. For a finance or administrative role, distinguish preparing records from approving them and internal training from a professional qualification.
A practical writing example
A useful experience bullet might say “Prepared monthly account reconciliations in English and resolved invoice queries with French-speaking suppliers.” Use this structure only if both the work and language use reflect your experience.
This is an illustrative writing example. Use only details that reflect your own experience.
