How to Write a Creative Industry CV That Gets You Interviews in 2026
A well-written CV will not get you a job in the creative industry on its own — your portfolio will always carry more weight. But a poorly written CV can absolutely cost you an interview, even if your work is exceptional. Hiring managers at studios and agencies review dozens of applications for every open role. A CV that is hard to read, poorly structured, or full of irrelevant information creates friction at exactly the moment you need to make a strong impression. Getting your CV right removes that friction and lets your portfolio do the talking.
