<h2>2. Update Your Digital CV</h2>
<p>In addition to verified credentials, you should update your CV before trying to find a job as a doctor in the UAE. Often your CV is the first interaction you have with a recruiter or potential employers, so make sure it’s updated to put your best foot forward. </p>
<p>A digital CV works best to support your job search, as you do not have to create multiple hardback copies for distribution.
