Structural and pipe welding. Processes, positions and a skill-test level — what Gulf and local contractors test you on.

A welder CV lists processes and positions exactly — arc (SMAW), MIG, TIG, and 3G, 4G or 6G — because a welder is tested on these at the agency and the CV should match what the test will show. The example above does that and describes structures by what was built: factory sheds, steel trusses up to 24 metres. The format works for a welder or welder fabricator job in Nepal, India, the Gulf or Malaysia.
