Appendix B
Europass vs. handmade CV
As you have probably alredy noticed, this is not a Europass curriculum vitæ. Although
I also provide an Europass version of my CV (available here ), I wish to briefly explain
my opinion about the common practice of preferring a standardised template instead
of a flexible and taylored formula.
Why should I write a CV while it is sufficient to fill a pre-compiled form?10 There is a
couple of reasons I opted for writing my own hand. Let’s start taking a look to a very
straightforward definition of CV:
A curriculum vitae (CV) provides an overview of a person’s experience and other qualifications. In some countries, a CV is typically the first item that a potential employer encounters
regarding the job seeker and is typically used to screen applicants (people who apply for job
online), often followed by an interview, when seeking employment.11
i) How can a CV really ‘provide an overview of a person’s experience and other qualifications’
if it’s just a pure list of things people declare to be able to do, providing no proof they’re,
at least, able to write a list themselves?
Please consider, for instance, I claimed a few pages ago I have an excellent familiarity
with LATEX and XƎTEX environments; can you have a taste of this with a Europass CV?
Will you similarly trust me12 ? Nevertheless, there is clearly no way to prove all things
I pretend to be able to do, just writing a CV…
ii) Europass CVs are intended (and designed) to be fastly compared one with each
other: I don’t want to be fastly compared with anyone else, indeed. I bet that person
comparing me fast, would certainly prefer not to be absent-mindedly scrutinized himself
(or herself). Norms of fairness would suggest, since CV is ‘typically the f irst item that a
potential employer encounters regarding the job seeker’, and nothing guarantees it won’t be
the last, since ‘often’, but not always, is ‘followed by an interview’, that this sort of ‘screen’
shall last somewhat more than 10 seconds.
These, among others, are the main reasons behind my choice; please, respect them, as
much as you can. I do really apologize if eventually missed your expectations.
