What Recruiters Look For

Chemical Engineer CVs must show your IChemE membership level, process design experience, and safety qualifications. Include the types of plants and processes you have worked on and your HAZOP credentials.

Key Skills to Include

CEng (IChemE), Aspen HYSYS, HAZOP facilitation, process design (PFD/P&ID), COMAH/DSEAR compliance, heat and mass balance, equipment sizing, and process safety.

Common Mistakes

Not specifying the scale and type of processes you have worked on. A pharmaceutical batch reactor and a petrochemical cracking plant are vastly different. State production capacities and project values.

Formatting Tips

One to two pages. Lead with CEng status and IChemE membership. Include a Key Projects section with plant type, capacity, and your specific design role.
