CV for Jobs in Morocco: French-Style Format, Languages and Employer Expectations

Morocco's job market is strongly influenced by French conventions. Casablanca, Rabat, Tangier and Kenitra host multinationals, automotive and aerospace plants, banks and a large offshoring sector serving France, Spain and other markets.

Format

• One to two pages, reverse-chronological.
• A short profile (accroche) under a clear job title, as in France.
• Formal tone.

Language

French is the main business language for CVs. English is growing in tech, offshoring and multinationals. Arabic is used for some public-sector roles. Follow the language of the ad.

Languages section

Morocco is multilingual, and employers value it. List Arabic, French, English, Spanish and Amazigh where relevant, with levels (for example CEFR B2 or C1). For offshoring, language level is often the deciding factor.

Photo and personal details

A photo is optional. Basic personal details are common; never include your CIN number.

Education

Grandes écoles (ENCG, ENSA, EMI, ISCAE) and the baccalauréat type are commonly read for graduates. Mention internships (stages), which are an important part of most programmes.

In Morocco, a clear title, a short accroche and well-defined language levels do most of the work.
