CV Translation into English
If you want to translate your CV into English, you should know about the strategies that will help you obtain a professional CV. We discuss below the top 4 strategies for translating CVs into English.
1. Target Audience Analysis
The translation process not only means free translation of the source text, but it is also important to carefully understand and analyze the target audience. For instance, the designs of CVs varies according to whether it will be presented in the local or international markets.
In Egypt, most employers require a detailed CV which they consider necessary for the employment process, while in UK, for instance, employers believe a brief CV is more important at the beginning of the employment process.
2. Choosing a professional translation provider
Unfortunately, many job seekers resort to free CV translation websites to have their CVs translated, however, this reduces their chance to win jobs. In particular, translation is not revised by a specialist in this case. Free translation websites do not provide 100% reliable translation. Using such websites may produce poor translation with misplaced terms. This will certainly ruin the effective presentation of the skills and experiences. So, you should seek a professional translation service provider to perform this mission for you. ATS also provides certified documents translation for travel, including:

3. Convenient Formatting
Although timely and accurate translation is always important, translated text formatting is a critical success factor in translation as well. Translating CVs involves providing appropriate formatting appeals to employers while listing all skills, experiences and features with no omissions or changes.
4. Customization
Some job seekers believe that one professional CV is all what they need. However, “customization” strategy is necessary. What we mean is to customize your experience and talents according to the type of position you are applying for. For example, applying for a content writer vacancy requires displaying relevant experience and skills in this sector. Having strong background in graphic design will not be useful. You need to customize your skills and experience to highlight your achievements in content writing basically.
Is it possible to use AI CVs Translation?
AI translation of CVs became widely popular recently. Indeed, some websites proven worthy in providing quick CVs translation. Nevertheless, you need to verify accuracy against the source text and check translation flow against cultural nuances of both source and target languages. The translation must also satisfy the requirements of official professional style. This all requires human review by specialists.
