It is very common for IT professionals to use their LinkedIn profile as their CV:  it saves time and one can immediately apply to a job opening. But, besides not being easily editable and not accepted by all types of companies, it might not be exactly what you need as an IT professional. We believe you should have your CV ready to use in different templates and be able to generate it in a matter of minutes, especially the classic Europass CV. Let us show you how to convert Linkedin to Europass in minutes.

Many of you think that the Europass is dead, but we can assure you it’s not. It is, by far, the most used CV template in Europe, especially in civil service jobs and consulting companies. So, when a company asks for your CV, Europass is never wrong and is well accepted. We believe that, with some IT professional-oriented improvements, the Europass CV can be your best ally so the recruiter knows you are the right person for the job.

With this in mind, we created a feature in Sprint CV that allows you to import your Linkedin profile. Today, we are here to help you convert your Linkedin to Europass CV, fine tunned to the IT industry, in a Word document.
