Your details
About me
Two short lines: what you're studying and what you're looking for.
Education
Most recent first.
Projects & activities
No job needed — class projects, clubs, sports, helping at home or a shop all count.
Skills
Languages you speak, plus any computer or practical skills.
Everything you type stays on your device — nothing is uploaded or saved.
Prefer a blank template?
Download a clean, one-page template and fill it in your own way. It's a Word file you can edit on a phone or a computer.
Student CV — no work experience yet
How to fill this in
Put your name and contact details at the top. You don't need job experience — school, projects and activities all count. List your latest school or college first. Under Projects & activities, write things you've really done — a class project, a poster, helping at a family shop, a sports team — one short line each. Under Skills, add the languages you speak and any computer or practical skills. Keep it to one page. Use simple words.
CV with some experience
How to fill this in
This one is for when you have a little experience to show — a job, internship, volunteering or freelance work. Put your contact details at the top. Add a two-line About me: what you're studying and the internship you want. Change these two lines for each company. List your education, latest first. Under Experience, add any work, volunteering or freelance task — even unpaid — with one line on what you did. Use Projects for course or personal work, and Skills for tools and languages. Keep it to one page and save it as a PDF before applying.
