Hello , I was looking for a place to do work experience when i found a place , Except it requires a CV and i have never learnt how to make one, Would someone have any idea on how to make one and maybe post an example of one? Thanks in advance.
I think you have to be at least 14 to get a job in most places
No one on FP knows how. Average user here is either a 13 y/o or never had a job.
Write about yourself, basic description, what you want to do in life, your experiences (if any), qualifications (if any) or what you're currently trying to complete.
Don't do lists, bullet points, tables etc
Well structured paragraphs no more than a page

That really depends on where in the world you are. In sweden, they generally split the CV into 2 pieces: A list of your experiences, education and the other stuff. Then there's the personal letter which is basically the same, but more customized for the job you're applying to.
A CV and personal statement are two different things and are in the UK and probably most of the world
they're usually just merged with the CV and you should have multiple CV's depending what you're applying for
also this guy is french, god knows what they do there
Ask your parents perhaps? Maybe even google it? :downs:
Atleast you're trying to get a job, unlike the majority of FP.

Googles a wonderful thing, I think I actually used it to find out how to make my CV a couple years ago.
[Ningaglio here]: Thanks , And yes , I am 14.

I'm actually swedish but work in the UK. There's a few differences, but generally it's the same thing, yes. The biggest differences are the formats.
Just write anything relevant (or irrelevant) you've been doing before getting there, most recent first.
