Preparing your CV for Malta
EURES describes an English CV, normally within two pages, with a covering letter or email. It recommends Europass as an available format and notes that some employers use their own application forms. A recommendation is not a requirement to use one template everywhere.
Check the complete application
Check language requirements beyond the language of the CV. A customer-facing job may require capabilities that an English-only document does not demonstrate. Name software, processes and responsibilities relevant to the posting.
A practical writing example
For a reservations role, “Updated room allocations and responded to booking changes in the property-management system” explains the task more clearly than “excellent hospitality skills”. Add the system name if you used it.
This is an illustrative writing example. Use only details that reflect your own experience.
Sources and further guidance
Sources checked 22 September 2026. Conventions can vary by employer and role; official services define their own current requirements.
