Where should personal information go resume?

The personal details section is located right at the top of your CV and it is the first thing that recruiters will see when they review your CV. Your name should be written in big bold letters and centred on the page. If you have a long name, only include your first and last name.

Without the crucial information about how much your income is, and what you can actually afford, others will not be able to tell. They would find you spend on something and hold back on something else, and not be able to judge or interfere.
