Answer 2

Mine is a overview at the top then experience then education.

For a young worker I would start with the overview. Introduce yourself, then education to the point of individual relevant classes and list your volunteer jobs at the bottom.

Example:
Ambitious young worker looking for a first job. I have taken classes in Excel, Word and Access and used them in my volunteer work. I am a quick study and can pick up software and learn it without formal classes. I have used Peachtree and Quicken and various proprietary software programs.
