CV Language Choice (English vs. Indonesian)
📌 The choice between an English or Indonesian CV should primarily align with the company culture and the job posting requirements.
🏢 For multinational corporations where foreign languages are common daily practice, an English CV is mandatory, as interviews will likely also be in English.
📄 If the job description info is in Indonesian, using an Indonesian CV is acceptable; likewise, use English if the requirements are listed in English.
💡 Avoid using English just to impress if you don't fully grasp the meaning; it's better to maximize the quality of your Indonesian CV.

CV Preparation and Authenticity
🤖 While tools like Google Translate and grammar checkers can assist in creating English CVs, you must fully understand everything you write.
📚 If unsure about English proficiency, it is recommended to take English courses first to ensure confidence during interviews.
📝 Focus on maximizing the quality of your existing language CV by re-checking the descriptions for experience, skills, and self-introduction.
