FAQ
- Should I include references on my Australian resume, or just write 'references available on request'?
- Australian employers often expect to see references listed directly on your resume, or at minimum a line stating they're available. Unlike US resumes where references are rarely included, it's standard practice here—just make sure you've asked permission first and include current contact details.
- How do I write about overseas work experience when applying for Australian jobs?
- Focus on outcomes and skills that transfer directly to the Australian role. Use Australian spelling and terminology (e.g., 'organisation' not 'organization'), briefly contextualize the company if it's unknown locally, and emphasize any experience working across time zones, with diverse teams, or in similar regulatory environments.
- Do Australian resumes need to be one page, or can they run longer?
- Australian resumes typically run two to three pages for experienced professionals—longer than US resumes but more concise than UK CVs. Focus on relevant, recent experience with clear achievements. Don't pad it, but don't force everything onto one page if you have substantial career history to show.
