Step 3: Prepare CV/Résumé

After evaluating your CV strength and seeing your funding chances in the first two steps, it is time to prepare a Word file of your curriculum vitae (CV). It is an important application document regardless of the degree level you are applying for. To prepare your academic CV, you can get ideas from previous successful applicants’ samples, which is time-consuming. Alternatively, you may use platforms like LinkedIn, which provide a general CV format. However, Applyindex offers a more tailored approach with its automated, data-driven resume creator, specifically designed for academic purposes.
