CV & resume standards in Austria

This is the live market data our scanner applies when a resume targets Austria — not an opinion piece. The local document is the Lebenslauf; here is what employers there actually expect.

Photo on the CV? Common — most applicants include one

The DACH region has the strongest photo culture in Europe; nearly all CVs include one.

Personal data conventions

DOB commonly listed; conventions track Germany closely.

Market conventions

• • German-style tabular Lebenslauf
• • Formal titles (Mag., Dipl.-Ing.) matter more than in Germany

Check your resume against these standards

The free scan evaluates your resume against Austria's norms automatically — photo expectations, personal-data conventions, length, and the keywords your industry expects.
