Why China is Different

Chinese Section Headings & Bilingual CVs

CVs targeting the China job market often use Chinese section titles (學歷 for Education, 工作經驗 for Work Experience, 專業能力 for Skills, 語言 for Languages, 課外活動 for Activities). Content can be in Chinese, English, or both. Our China Standard Resume template uses these headings by default and supports switching the editor language so your CV looks familiar to local recruiters while staying ATS-friendly for international roles and MNCs.

Formal Tone & Respect for Hierarchy

Chinese recruiters and employers generally expect a formal, respectful tone. Avoid casual language. Titles and hierarchy matter—address senior roles appropriately in your cover letter. A concise personal summary (個人簡介) at the top of your CV, 1–2 pages in length, is standard. Quantified achievements and clear skills categories (e.g. 進階/基礎 for advanced/basic) are valued.

Photo & Local Conventions

In mainland China, a professional photo is often expected on the CV. Our template keeps the layout ATS-safe; you can add a photo in the editor if your target role prefers it. Age and birth date are sometimes included locally—we leave them optional so you can comply with either local or international norms. For roles at multinationals or overseas, a more Western-style CV (no photo, no age) is also common; our template works for both.
