From CV to Career: Applying for DB Work

When you are looking for a job in the Netherlands, the first step is your CV. Even if you have solid experience and strong technical skills, without a clear and well-organized CV, you may not be contacted.

At DB Work, your CV is the first thing we review when you apply for a job. That’s why it’s important for it to be simple, correct, and complete.

Why Does a Well-Prepared CV Matter?

A well-structured CV helps us quickly understand:

• The field you have worked in (naval, industrial, construction, electrical, automotive, logistics);
• How much experience you have and how long you worked at each job;
• What you can actually do (welding, cabling, installation, demolition, forklift operation, etc.);
• Whether you have certifications or qualifications (VCA, licenses, permits).

The clearer the information, the faster the recruitment process. In many cases, suitable candidates are contacted shortly after sending their CV.

What Should Your CV Include?

It doesn’t need to be complicated. It should include:

• Your correct contact details (phone number, email);
• Work experience listed in chronological order;
• The field you worked in;
• The tasks and responsibilities you had;
• Relevant certifications or courses;
• Your level of English.

There’s no need for a fancy template. What matters most is that it’s clear and easy to read.

Mistakes to Avoid

• A CV that is too short and lacks details about what you actually did;
• Incorrect contact information;
• Missing information about your work experience;
• Sending a CV that hasn’t been updated.

A good CV increases your chances of being selected for an interview.
