A CV in South Africa
What official sources say about the length, personal details and language of a CV for South Africa.
Length
One to two pages, and it's worth checking the number the posting asks for, according to the Western Cape Government.
Personal details
Official guides list personal details such as date of birth or ID number, and say you don't need your religion or a photo unless requested. CVmundi doesn't flag these details.
Language
There are 11 official languages, so CVmundi doesn't check the language of the CV.
