What Sweden recruiters expect
Swedish CVs follow Nordic + EU Europass conventions. 1-2 pages reverse-chronological. Arbetsförmedlingen (arbetsformedlingen.se) is the Public Employment Service. Photo + DOB + marital status are LEGALLY discouraged under Diskrimineringslagen (2008:567) and most modern Swedish CVs omit them entirely. Personligt brev (cover letter) is separate; CV stays factual. Swedish + English bilingual; English-only CVs are normal for tech / Spotify / Klarna / Ericsson / King ecosystem / pharma / multinationals. EU language framework. Date format YYYY-MM-DD per Swedish convention (also ISO). Personnummer (national ID) NEVER on a public CV. Strong outbound corridor to Norway, Denmark, Finland, UK, US, Germany.
