Writing a CV for annotation and AI evaluation roles

A CV for annotation and AI evaluation roles should show evidence of precision, not adjectives. Lead with work where accuracy was measured, such as proofreading, audits, medical coding or marking, and quantify it. State required qualifications in the listing’s own words, name your languages with levels and varieties, and list only tools you have actually used.
Key points
- Quantified evidence beats words like detail-oriented.
- Automated screening often looks for the listing’s exact terms.
- Write language levels precisely: native, C2, C1, with variety.
- Many platforms want an English CV whatever the role’s language.
“Detail-oriented” appears on almost every CV, so screeners skip it. What gets noticed is evidence: work where precision was measured, rules were followed and errors had consequences.
Lead with relevant evidence
Good candidates for annotation and evaluation often come from jobs that do not sound related: proofreading, medical coding, legal review, quality control, data entry with audits, teaching and marking. Describe what was checked and how. “Reviewed 200 contracts a month against a 40-point checklist” says more than any adjective.
State requirements plainly
If a role asks for a degree, licence or language level, put it near the top in the same words the listing uses. Automated screening often looks for exact terms.
Languages, precisely
Write native, C2, C1 and so on, and name the variety where relevant: Brazilian or European Portuguese, Latin American or Spain Spanish. Many listings specify it.
Tools
List the tools you have actually used: transcription software, CAT tools, annotation platforms, spreadsheets, code editors. Do not list a tool you would need to learn on the job.
Keep it in the requested language and format
Several platforms ask for a CV in English regardless of the role’s language. One or two pages, plain layout, no photos unless asked.
Show, briefly
If the form allows a link, a short portfolio of your own practice samples helps. See how to build one without paid courses.

Frequently asked questions
Should my CV be in English for AI training jobs?
Usually yes. Many platforms ask for a CV in English even for roles in other languages, and some automated screens reject other languages. Keep the content identical to your local CV, translated carefully, and state your native language and level clearly near the top.
What experience counts for AI annotation roles?
Any work where precision was checked: proofreading, editing, medical or legal coding, quality control, audited data entry, teaching and marking. Describe what you checked and how much, for example the number of documents reviewed against a checklist each month.
How long should a CV for AI evaluation be?
One or two pages with a plain layout and no photo unless asked. Put stated requirements, such as a degree, licence or language level, near the top in the same words the listing uses. Add a portfolio link if the form allows one.
