Ejemplo de currículum en inglés

El CV anglosajón suele comenzar con una descripción genérica del perfil (profile). En ella se destacan los aspectos más relevantes del perfil profesional (incluyendo funciones, conocimientos y logros). La ventaja de empezar con un perfil general y descriptivo es que puedes dar una visión completa de ti y adecuarla a la oferta. Aquí tienes un ejemplo: aunque se trata de un analista financiero, hay otros inputs que podrían ser válidos para cualquier curriculum:
