British CVs and American résumés follow a specific format which is slightly different in the first part concerning the personal information. Age, gender, height, weight, marital status, photos… should not be included in the American résumé. In a British CV, as well as the usual contact details (home address, telephone number, e-mail address), other personal details such as nationality, marital status and age are mentioned at the beginning of the CV.
The expressions highlighted in the résumé below are standard and can be used almost systematically in this type of letter.
