CV template for Slovakia (Slovak CV format)

Leslie prints work experience right after the profile and ahead of skills, so an engineer's plants, launches and audits fill the top half of the page. Its centred blue header and short blue underlines add one restrained touch of colour, and the custom section at the end holds the referees.

Second choice: Henrietta. Henrietta also puts jobs first but moves education up to follow them, in black and grey only; choose it for a strictly conservative look.

Leslie template details and test results

Leslie 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. Three lines on your field, your years in the industry and the standards you work to (IATF 16949, VDA 6.3). Slovak employers read it in Slovak: EURES lists a CV in Slovak among the papers to prepare before moving to Slovakia.
2. Work Experience. The Trenčín deck asks for the company name, your position, the years you started and left and a short, clear description of the work, starting with the latest job. Month and year say more than the year alone when a role lasted under two years.
3. Skills. Quality methods first, then software, then each language with a level. The Trenčín deck also suggests giving your driving licence category if you drive actively; add it as one line under the languages in Word if supplier visits are part of the job.
4. Education. Start with the highest level reached and write the full name of the school without abbreviations, then the field, the title and the year you finished, as the Trenčín deck sets out. Primary school stays off.
5. Certifications. Auditor qualifications print near the bottom in Leslie. When an advert asks for a VDA 6.3 process auditor, say so in the headline too, as the sample does.
6. References. The Trenčín deck calls references a desirable part of the CV and says to ask each contact for consent beforehand and tell them you have applied. Give name, role, company and one way to reach them.

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.
