Still trying to find my first job!I'm 17 now and have been applying for part time jobs since I left school last year. I still haven't even had one interview. My main problem is that I don't have a CV, so I only apply for jobs online.
I don't know how to make a CV or what to put on it as I don't have any work experience at all. And I don't have anywhere to print them off or photocopy them.
Also, the only references I have are my tutor from school, and current tutor in college. Do I need the phone number of the school or their personal one? -

Re: Still trying to find my first job!There's lots of guides online for helping you make a CV. The main things to include would be your contact details, previous work experience, exam results and if you've done any first aid courses.
Include a little section with some information about yourself - try to make it all positive, something like "I'm talkative and enjoy meeting new people" would be a good sentence to have in there if you're going for shop assistant type jobs.
