firstly your personal detail, name, address, phone number , date of birth if you wish!! next section is your education, starting with your latest and working backwards... e.g 3rd level 2nd level (include final results), next section is work experience ( where else you have worked)always highlight the experience that will apply to the job you are sending the cv to... finish it off with personal skills, qualities (good timekeeper etc) your hobbies and interests..... at the end you need two references e.g joe bloggs, shop manager, 'address of shop', phone number!!!!
finish the cv off with your signature and date!!! thats the general layout!!!!!!!!111

Lack of experience is always a problem.try to show all relevant duties/responsibilties that you've had at jobs in the past.The most important thing to do is try to sound interesting cos nobody wants to work with someone dull and this will also make the interviewers job easier to talk to you about what you've put down on ya cv.LEARN your cv.This may sound strange but the amount of people ive interviewed that dont remember whats on their own cv is ridiculas and just makes them look stupid.a good cv and knowledge of it will actually help you steer the interview the way you want it to go.you know what they know about you so you can be prepared with good responses.
Another important point is to remember that a cv gets you the interview. after that the interview itself is largly going to be down to you and if you are going to be working with the person whos doing the interview, whether they like you or not.Even if you look on paper perfect for the job, if they dont like you, you probably wont get the job.
go to as many interviews as possible, even jobs you're not really interested in.Again this may sound strange but it will give you priceless incites into the kind of q's you could get in the interview you are actually interested in.
Good luk

You can start with your name, date of birth and address and then list personal skills such as "good at working in teams" or whatever you're good at. You can also list your school address (or college) and the qualifications you received and any training you have been on. You can list your hobbies and interests (be more interesting than swimming and reading). Remember that the purpose of a CV is not to get you the job but to get you the interview so just try and be interesting enough to get the interview. Please do spell check it. Printing it out on nice thick CV paper helps too. Keep it to one page.

How old are you? I did my first CV at sixteen and of course, had no work experience back then. So I wrote down all of the extra classes I had taken (CPR, music,...) the volunteer work hours I had previously done, the committees in which I was, the prizes and scholarships I had won, languages I could speak, my interests...
Oh, and don't forget to join a letter in which you explain what motivates you to work there.
Worked for me!
Good luck!

Not much to put in a curriculum vitae if you don't have the life experience yet. However, there are some basic things you can include. There are a LOT of helpful web sites out there that explain how to write one and what should go in it. Try about.com.

If you have look on the internet you should be able to find some examples - alternatively you could go to an employment agency for assistance.
Really you need to show your personal details (contact details), your academic achievements and any work experience you have (if you've not worked it could be volunteer work you've undertaken).
Ask friends or parents for advice on a draft version and take it from there.

Whatever you write should be spelled correctly. I suggest you have someone review it for you as well as using the spell checker. Spelling, grammar, and punctuation mistakes can kill you on a CV.
