A useful starting point
Lead with the employee population, the ER or hiring you own, and a policy or metric. Two pages. Skip “people person”. Skip this if you have only done HR administration — use HR advisor.
These examples illustrate structure, not a real applicant’s history. Replace every sample detail with your own evidence. Follow the employer’s instructions on qualifications, registration, document length and file format.
Evidence to consider
- Headcount
- ER or IR
- HRIS
- A policy or tribunal-adjacent proof you can discuss
