Spain - format cv

Is the Europass format CV widely used and accepted?

The national CV format is generally preferred.

Is there a preference for handwritten applications?

No, a covering letter should be typed unless otherwise requested.

Is it standard to include a photo on the CV?

A photo is standard but not obligatory. The photo should be a head/shoulder shot (unless a full-body photo is requested), appropriate to the position. Save it in a format that doesn’t take up too much space in the CV.
