What makes this CV work

Hiring managers and ATS parsers look for the same signals. This example covers both.

✦

Methodology named

Agile, Scrum, PRINCE2 and stage-gate appear as written, because that is the exact wording job ads use and parsers match on.

✦

Scope in numbers

Budget size, squad count and programme length show seniority far better than 'managed multiple projects'.

✦

Certifications visible

PRINCE2 and Scrum sit in their own section, so a screener confirms them without reading the full history.

How to tailor it to the job ad

Paste the posting into CinnoVate and the ATS checker compares your CV against it.

1

Match the delivery style

If the ad is pure agile, lead with sprint and backlog language. If it is stage-gate or PMO-heavy, lead with governance and reporting.

2

Mirror their tooling

Jira, Asana, MS Project, Smartsheet — list the ones you have actually used that the posting names.

3

Quantify the outcome

Replace 'managed the project' with the budget, headcount, timeline or saving you were accountable for.
