Australian Resume Format: What Filipino Professionals Need to Change
Australian employers expect a different resume style. Here's how to adapt yours — length, photo, references, and language.
18 June 2026
Key differences
- No photo — unlike PH resumes, Australian resumes never include photos
- 2–3 pages is normal — not the one-page rule
- No personal details — no birthday, civil status, or religion
- Achievements over duties — quantify your impact
- Local phone format — once you arrive, use an Australian number
Structure that works
Contact details → professional summary → key skills → experience (reverse chronological) → education → references ('available on request' is fine).
