Job searching and preparing an application complement each other: describe skills, then verify the vacancy.

Getting started

Prepare a role-specific CV with Europass and compare the details of an EURES vacancy.

Before deciding

Check employer, country, working language, contract and vacancy date. This portal does not receive applications.

Choose a source and keep useful references

Compare resources

Europass presents skills; EURES helps explore vacancies and working contexts. A completed CV does not validate a vacancy.

Prepare your research

For a vacancy, note employer, reference, country, date and official application channel. Keep your skills comparison without publishing personal data.

Practical questions

What should I check before applying for a job?

Find the vacancy through the employer's official channel and compare its reference, role and contact details. Resolve discrepancies using an independently located contact; avoid sending sensitive documents merely to clear up uncertainty.

Should I send the same CV for every role?

Match requested skills to verifiable achievements. Keep dates and responsibilities accurate, remove details unrelated to the role and clearly identify skills you are still developing.
