CV Writing Tips for Sri Lankan Job Seekers
Keep it to 1-2 Pages
Most Sri Lankan employers prefer a concise CV. Fresh graduates should aim for one page; experienced professionals can use two.
Include All Exam Results
Always list your O/L and A/L results with individual subject grades and index numbers. Government job applications almost always require this.
Use a Professional Photo
A clear, professional headshot against a plain background makes your CV more memorable. Avoid selfies or casual photos.
Show Second Attempt Honestly
If you sat O/L or A/L twice, include both attempts. Many employers in Sri Lanka accept and respect candidates who persisted and improved their results.
List Strong References
Include at least two references — ideally a former employer and an academic referee. Always get their permission first.
Proofread Before Sending
Spelling mistakes and incorrect dates make a poor impression. Review your CV carefully before downloading and sending to employers.
