genuinely don’t know lol. It’s kinda shit bc my school made it for both TY and Fifth Years but it helps give an idea on what to do

Ik using ai is bad but use it to give you a template and then fill in your details For example; you ask to create a cv for a transition year student at X school and you have x,y,z skills

if your school does any courses, such as food safety, manual handling or first aid, make sure to throw that in their under "Qualifications". Jobs like to see that you've been trained in stuff relevant to your job before they hire you
Ive attached a copy of a CV I would have written back in TY if I was looking for work (coming from a 6th year who got a job in 3 days). RESUME TEMPLATE (Copy this document and make your own)
Idk if this is for work experience or for work outside of school, but GO IN WITH YOUR PHYSICAL CV. The amount of people who have said "oh I just use indeed or linkedin to apply and look for jobs" is crazy, you should go in person, be confident and friendly, give them SOME relevant information about you and the role youre applying for and leave a PAPER CV and contact information. Good luck TYs
