Passing your test is just the start. Here's how to put together a strong driving CV and find your first HGV role.
Writing A Strong Driving CV
Employers want to see your qualifications and experience at a glance. A clear, well-structured CV makes a huge difference when applying for HGV roles.
- Lead with your licence categories and any CPC/ADR certifications
- List DVLA points and driving history honestly and clearly
- Highlight vehicle types you're experienced with (rigid, artic, tanker, etc.)
- Include any specialist experience — tail lifts, ADR, multi-drop, tramping
- Keep it to one or two pages, with clear, recent contact details
