CV format guide

What to know about local CV conventions before you apply in this country.

Local term: CVPhoto: Mixed — depends on the employer

In the Netherlands, a photo is still common at smaller local companies, while larger/international employers increasingly prefer none. 1-2 pages, a motivation letter (motivatiebrief) is often required, and a direct, concise style is valued.

These are general guidelines based on common practice, not hard rules — a specific employer's expectations can differ. When in doubt, it's safe to keep both a with-photo and a without-photo version ready.
