CV template for Greece (Greek CV format)

Henrietta prints education straight after the jobs and ahead of skills, so degrees and training sit high on the page, in a conventional black and grey business layout. Its custom section at the end holds the seminars that EURES asks applicants to list with title, duration and organiser.

Second choice: Leslie. Leslie also opens on experience but prints skills before education and adds a blue header; pick it when your systems matter more than your degrees.

Henrietta template details and test results

Henrietta prints its sections in a fixed order, the same in the PDF and the Word file. Here is that order for this sample, and what to put in each section.

1. Professional Summary. Two or three lines on the vessel types, trades and tasks you handle. NKUA's career office says a CV is never written in the first person, so drop "I" and start with your role.
2. Work Experience. EURES asks for job titles, previous employers, dates of employment and the duties you carried out. AUEB's career office adds reverse chronological order, so the current job opens the section.
3. Education. Reverse chronological again, as AUEB advises: a master's degree above the first degree, each with the institution and years. A dissertation line helps only when it relates to the job.
4. Skills. EURES says to mention foreign languages with your level and any qualifications. AUEB suggests the certificate, the body that awarded it and your current level; Henrietta prints skill groups without labels, so keep languages in a group of their own.
5. Seminars. EURES asks for the title, subject and duration of seminars you attended, with the organising body. One line per seminar, newest first, is enough.

The same content as the files above, so you can copy a line or compare it with your own.

We exported this sample with Resumity's PDF exporter in Chrome on 2026-10-29 and read the file back with three open-source text extractors. This shows whether software that turns a PDF into text can recover it; it is not a test of any commercial applicant tracking system. How we test templates.
