Tips for a heavy vehicle driver CV
Write your licence class exactly
Copy the licence classes exactly as they appear on your licence, for example "C and CE", with the country that issued it.
Name your vehicles and trailers
Say which trucks and trailers you drive: rigid, articulated, tanker, refrigerated or curtain-side. Add any other licences, such as forklift.
Describe your routes
Say if you drive local, long-distance or international routes, and which countries or regions you know.
Show a clean record
If your driving record is clean, say so in your profile. Only write it if it is true.
List your driver certificates
Add professional driver certificates, dangerous goods training and tachograph cards, with their expiry dates.
Applying in another country?
Whether you can use or convert your licence abroad, and which tests you need, depends on the country. See the country guides for the official links.
