What Hungary recruiters expect

Hungarian CVs (Önéletrajz) follow EU Europass conventions. 1-2 pages reverse-chronological. Nemzeti Foglalkoztatási Szolgálat (NFSZ / nfsz.munka.hu) is the National Employment Service. Photo conventional but optional under the Egyenlő Bánásmódról szóló Törvény (Equal Treatment Act 2003). Hungarian + English bilingual; German common for outbound corridor to Austria / Germany (Audi Hungary, Mercedes-Benz Manufacturing Hungary, BMW investments). EU language framework (A1–C2). Date format YYYY.MM.DD or DD.MM.YYYY. Family-name-first ordering in Hungarian (Kovács János) — preserve as written, but most international CVs invert to Latin order. TAJ (social security ID) NEVER on a public CV.
