The content of the curriculum or resume must be concise, because it will hold names, last names, addresses, and telephone numbers. Then, you will mention you working experience, presenting in a much summarized format recent jobs (in which companies and for how long), performed studies and level reached; you must also talk about your skills (including your hobbies and the languages you speak), competences and references from your former employers. It is important to be concise with the content, but precise enough to be appealing to read it quickly. Achievements obtained in previous jobs can also be considered.

It is necessary to mention that the interviews develop in English, which demands the immigrant to practice a lot. The punctuality in assisting to the interview is also an important element, which can play for or against the immigrant, as well as the clothing he or she wears.
