5 Common CV Mistakes Fresh Graduates Make

calendar_today Dec 07, 2025 schedule 1 min read

1. Using an Unprofessional Email

Your email "sosocool99@hotmail.com" was fine for gaming, but not for a job application. Use firstname.lastname@gmail.com.

2. Grammatical Errors in English

Since English is the business language of Egypt, typos signal "poor attention to detail". Always use spell check.

3. "Curriculum Vitae" as a Title

Don't put "Curriculum Vitae" at the top. Put Your Name. We know it's a CV.

4. Including "Reference Available Upon Request"

This is outdated. If they want references, they will ask properly.
