No AI reads your CV.
The rules are fixed data drawn from regulators, governments and careers services, and the builder applies them by code. No AI writes, reads or scores what you type.
Where a rule comes from is shown with it, and an employer’s own instructions always come first.
Questions.
Is CV Atlas free?
You can start for free.
Does AI write or check my CV?
No. The builder applies fixed rules from regulators, governments and careers services. No AI writes, reads or scores what you type.
Should I put a photo on my CV?
It depends on the country. Leave it out for the UK, Ireland, the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand; it is common in Germany and much of Europe, and usually expected in the Gulf states and Japan. The builder sets this for you.
What if my job isn’t in the list?
Type your own job title and pick the closest field. Every field has its own guidance.
Can I write my CV in another language?
Yes. Section headings are available in 16 languages, including German, French, Spanish, Arabic, Japanese and Chinese. You write the entries yourself in the language you choose.
Where are you applying?
The builder sets up the sections, their order and the checks for that country.
