Our editorial standards

Our editorial standards reflect how we research, evaluate, and shape every piece of guidance we publish.

Expert-driven content

Our writers and editors specialize in resumes, hiring trends, and industry-specific career guidance.

Every article follows a structured brief based on:

• Current recruiter expectations
• Industry benchmarks and hiring data
• Enhancv’s Resume Checker insights
• Feedback from real job seekers and career coaches

When we say something works, it’s because we’ve tested it—at scale.

Accuracy, evidence, and transparency

We rely on authoritative sources such as the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, LinkedIn, and OECD, along with aggregated internal data from millions of resume scans.

Key claims are supported by:

• Clear citations
• Time-stamped statistics
• Verifiable examples
• Real resume outcomes

We never use scare tactics or unsupported ATS claims.

Clarity and structure

Our editorial approach makes every page fast to read—and even easier to apply:

• Short paragraphs
• Bullet lists and checklists
• Real resume examples
• Step-by-step instructions

This structure also helps applicant tracking systems—and AI assistants—easily interpret our content.

Responsible, unbiased advice

• We avoid misleading promises, fear-based language, or unverified “hacks.”
• We do not guarantee jobs, salaries, or interview outcomes.
• Instead, we focus on practical improvements that have proven impact.
• If advice isn’t safe, ethical, and realistically achievable, it doesn’t get published.

How Enhancv content is created

Here’s how an idea becomes a fully developed, expert-reviewed article on Enhancv.

We choose relevant, high-impact topics

We track hiring trends, job-seeker behavior, and search data to understand what readers actually need.

Every topic begins with a simple question:

“Will this help someone get more interviews or make a smarter career decision?”

We build each piece around a structured, research-backed brief

Enhancv’s editorial briefs guide what every article must include:

• A clear definition
• An explanation of what the reader should do
• Actionable steps
• Examples, templates, and/or formulas
• A short FAQ matching real search patterns

Each piece is designed to solve a real hiring problem—not to fill space.

We write using evidence, examples, and expert insight

Writers produce drafts aligned with:

• Enhancv’s Editorial Guidelines
• Enhancv’s Brand & Style Guide
• User-friendly tone and layout principles
• Our internal data (Resume Checker, resume examples, ATS insights)

When possible, we show—not tell—using real resume bullets, tailored examples, or measurable outcomes.

We perform expert review and accuracy checks

Before publication, each article is reviewed by a specialist to ensure:

• Accuracy in career advice
• Safe handling of sensitive topics (income, employment, layoffs)
• Industry consistency
• Clear, professional tone

Nothing goes live without human review.

We optimize for search and readability

Once the content is accurate and clear, we format it for maximum usability:

• Tables for comparisons
• Bullets for steps and lists
• FAQs for direct answers
• Resume snapshots where relevant
• Links to deeper guides, skills pages, and templates

We ensure pages load fast, read cleanly, and feel intuitive on any device.

We update content to stay current

Hiring trends evolve, and so do our articles. We regularly refresh data, examples, tools, templates, screenshots, and industry advice.

Highest-priority pages receive scheduled reviews, ensuring you always get accurate, up-to-date guidance.

No generic templates. No copy/paste advice. Only what actually helps people stand out.
