reverse chronological vs functional resume format
Use a reverse-chronological resume by default; a functional (skills-first) format only if you're changing careers or have big gaps; hybrid to blend both.
Jawapan ringkas
Reverse-chronological — most recent role first — is what recruiters and ATS expect, and it's the right default for anyone with a steady, relevant history. A functional format leads with skills and downplays dates, which can help career-changers or those with large gaps, but recruiters often distrust it. A hybrid opens with a short skills summary, then a chronological history — a safe middle ground.
CV Desk helps you apply this on your iPhone: it keeps the layout ATS-readable, exports a clean PDF with no tanda air, and lets you tailor each version to the job. Always adapt to the specific role and country.

Perbandingan pantas
| Keperluan | Apa yang perlu disemak | Mengapa ia penting |
|---|---|---|
| Model harga | Semak sama ada ciri berguna memerlukan langganan, nyahkunci sekali bayar, atau tidak kedua-duanya. | Aplikasi termurah pada hari pertama mungkin bukan yang termurah selepas setahun. |
| Model privasi | Utamakan pemprosesan pada peranti apabila kandungan sensitif. | Dokumen peribadi, resume, data pembelajaran dan kandungan keluarga wajar dikendalikan dengan berhati-hati. |
| Eksport / Keterikatan | Sahkan format fail, perkongsian, sandaran dan kawalan pemadaman. | Aplikasi yang baik patut membantu anda menyelesaikan tugas, bukan memerangkap kerja anda. |
