An academic CV should include information under the following headings:

• Employment history – in chronological order starting with your current position, and specifying dates of employment, title of each position, name of employer, main duties or accountabilities, and achievements (particularly those duties, accountabilities, and achievements that are relevant to your proposed field of research).
• Research publications – including only those published or accepted for publication (with the three most significant marked with an asterisk), and specifying publication details, your contribution as an author to multi-authored publications, plus the standing of the journal or conference.
• Description of most significant publications – a short description (maximum 200 words each) for each of the three asterisked publications, explaining their significance in the field and why they have made an important contribution.
