What should an architect resume include?
Architecture practices and developers in India look for Council of Architecture registration, a clear portfolio, software fluency and the stage of projects handled, from concept to site supervision. A good architect resume lists building types, built-up areas, roles on each project and tools like AutoCAD, Revit and SketchUp, letting principals see instantly where the candidate fits in their studio.
Skills recruiters look for:
- Working drawings and detailing
- Design development
- Building bye-laws and approvals
- National Building Code compliance
- Consultant coordination
From our sample resumes:
- Rohan’s line about approvals secured without resubmission speaks directly to a principal’s biggest delivery risk, so it earns a place near the top of his current role.
- Sneha lists Council of Architecture registration in certifications, removing the first question any practice asks before calling a fresh graduate for interview.
