Why this CV works
- The large print style is easy to read on a printout and on a phone, which suits applications handed in at the factory gate or sent by WhatsApp.
- Every bullet states shift size, output or rejection rate, the three things a plant manager checks.
- Training such as 5S, Kaizen and safety courses is named exactly, the way job adverts write them.
- A short, plain summary replaces long self-praise.
Before you copy it
- Keep a printed copy as well as the PDF. Many factories still ask for paper.
- Write the machines and systems you have really operated, not a long list of everything you have seen.
