A first CV is not an apology for having no previous job title. It is a short, honest case for why you can learn, contribute and be trusted with responsibility.
Start with your name, city, phone number and a professional email address. Add a two- or three-line profile naming the kind of role you want and the strengths you can support with evidence.
Use an Evidence section when Employment History is empty. Include school responsibilities, volunteering, caring duties, sports leadership, community work and personal projects. Describe what you did with an action and a result: "Coordinated a five-person study group and maintained a weekly timetable" is stronger than "good teamwork."
List relevant tools and skills specifically. Replace "computer skills" with examples such as email, Microsoft Word, Google Docs, spreadsheets or point-of-sale practice. Only claim a skill you can discuss or demonstrate.
Keep the document easy to scan, usually one page for a first-time applicant. Check spelling, export it as a PDF and use a clear filename such as Firstname-Lastname-CV.pdf. Tailor the profile and strongest evidence for each role.
