This is an example, not your CV. Sam Example is invented, and so is every employer in it. It is here because an empty builder teaches nobody anything: read one line of it, then write over the top. It disappears the moment you type.
Start from the CV you already have
Choose a CV from your Documents or upload a PDF or Word file, and the form fills itself from it. You see what goes into each field first, and nothing goes in until you say so.
Your details
No photo, no date of birth, no marital status and no nationality. Employers here do not expect them, and they invite unconscious bias before anyone has read a word of your work.
Match the wording in the advertisement. It sits under your name and tells the reader in one second what they are holding. Two or three titles can share the line, split by a bar: Business Analyst | Process Improvement.
A suburb and a city is plenty. A full street address is a privacy risk on a document you send to strangers.
Professional summary
Three or four short lines beat a paragraph. Say what you do, the ground you have covered, and what you are after. Write it again for each application: this is the part that gets tailored.

Work experience
Achievements, not duties. One per bullet, start with the verb, and put a number on it wherever you honestly can: "cut handling time from 14 minutes to 9" says more than "responsible for process improvement". Most recent role first.
Dates print as Mar 2026. If your browser shows a plain box rather than a month picker, type it as 2026-03.
Education
Qualifications, tickets and licences all belong here. If you trained overseas, name the country: a reader who does not recognise the institution still needs to place it.
Skills
Separate them with commas or put one on each line. Use the words the advertisement uses, because a screening tool matches on exactly those words and cannot read a synonym.
Referees
"Available on request" is completely normal in New Zealand and is the safer default. Printing a referee's mobile number on a document you send to strangers hands it to every one of them, and your referee did not agree to that.
Ask every referee first, and tell them which role is calling. A surprised referee is a bad reference.

When the print dialog opens, set Destination to Save as PDF (on a Mac, use the PDF button at the bottom left). That step is the one that gives you the file.
Saved as you type, in this browser only. Download PDF sends what you have typed to our server to be laid out, and it is not kept. Print instead does everything on this device.
What New Zealand employers expect
- Two to three pages is normal here. One page is a United States rule and reads as thin; five reads as unedited.
- No photo, date of birth, marital status or nationality. Nobody here expects them, and each invites unconscious bias.
- Work visa status only if it helps you. If you have the right to work here, say so in one line; if not, leave it off.
- Referees available on request is fine. Line them up before you apply, and warn them before anyone calls.
