Resume basics
What Is a Resume for ACS Skills Assessment?
Your resume, also called a CV or curriculum vitae, is the document that sets out your complete ICT work history for your ACS skills assessment.
ACS uses it to see your career at a glance before reading your detailed evidence, so it needs to cover your full employment history in a clear, consistent, and verifiable format.
A resume prepared for a job application is not always suitable for a skills assessment. The emphasis shifts from selling yourself to documenting your career accurately and completely.
Who may need resume writing help?
- You have never prepared a resume for a skills assessment before.
- Your current resume is written for job applications, not for ACS.
- Your work history has gaps, overlaps, or role changes to present clearly.
- Your resume runs well over the page limit.
- Your formatting is inconsistent across sections.
- You want your duties to reflect your nominated occupation.
- You want your dates to match your reference letters.
Important: We write your resume using only the career information you provide. We do not add qualifications, employers, or experience you did not have.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
It is the CV that sets out your complete ICT work history for your ACS skills assessment, in reverse chronological order.
Yes. Unlike your RPL project reports, a resume is not restricted to self-authored content, so we can prepare or refine it directly using your genuine career information.
ACS asks applicants to keep the CV within three A4 pages. Check the current ACS guidance before submitting, as requirements can change.
Usually not without changes. A skills assessment resume needs your complete work history with exact dates, rather than a shortened highlights version.
Gaps are common and can be presented clearly. We will ask about anything unclear so your timeline reads consistently.
No. ACS requires project reports to be your own work. See our Project Writing service for guidance on writing those yourself.
We check that dates and job titles line up with the documents you provide, so your evidence stays consistent.
No. We provide resume writing only. Contact a registered migration agent for migration or visa advice.
