How To Write A French Resume. Nom de famille (last name) (in capital letters, please!) Preserve accents from foreign words where possible (so “résumé”).

If you want to be considered for a job, you should mention specific skills you are qualified to use. Along with the cover letter (which is more literary and personal), it should clearly show any interested employers exactly what they can expect from you and why they should hire you! In france, it’s common to write your last name before your first name in formal situations, on forms, legal documents, and some people even do so on their cv.
