Struggling to get a job - CV tips?

Does anyone have links to good CV templates and any tips of what to include and what to avoid?

I knew getting a job in a city would be harder than my hometown, but I didn't expect it to be this tedious. I have experience, but have been getting rejected with no interview a fair bit (well, mostly ghosted, thank you employers). It's only until a no-experience job rejected me within 1 day and had the usual "we found a better applicant and can't provide personal feedback due to the amount of applicants" in the email but the job posting stayed up for a week, that I realized my CV must be prematurely cutting my chances short— I'm 99% certain it was auto-rejected through a CV screening thing. I've had my CV layout for a few years, before the AI popularity boost, so my CV is quite "graphic" (stuff like name is bold blocky navy font, contact information separated in a colored block with a summary type-beat) and I feel a bit silly that it took me this long to realize it doesn't really work in todays corporate world.

If you have any non-CV related tips that would be great, too :]

Okay, 1) make sure you have experience! Have you done work experience in the sector you want to work in? Yes—perfect. No—go out and find some volunteering to do!
2) do you have examples of leadership? Prefect etc…
3) organise your cv in a way which is quick and easy. Rather than saying “in year seven I was a prefect for the entire year…” yadayada, say something like “I was a prefect”, “I was ….” Obviously give yourself some credit but people who want to employ you do not have the time to read 1000 words per paragraph explaining the processes etc.
4) fill up your cv. Do you speak another language (yes the language you learnt at school counts too!), do you do any extracurriculars? (Yes ballet still counts even if it doesn’t have anything to do with your work) etc!
5) go out and do things! Clubs, sports, languages! These will make you more likely to be picked from someone who hasn’t done these things!
Also, it would be awesome if CV’s let you colour it up, but depending on where you want to work, it may be seen as a bit childish (I would 100 percent love to see a colourful CV but some people hate any colour other than grey etc!) so make it dark and boring and be confident!!
Good luck with whatever you want to work in! And remember even if no experience is required, if someone with experience shows up they will more likely be picked!
Also also, the more experience you have is likely better than better grades less experience! So even if you have B’s etc, but your CV is maxed, you are always a better candidate than someone who only has A’s and nothing to show off!

Although I generally don't suggest other websites, when I was struggling a bit retooling my CV a friend of mine suggested a ?blog/?website called askamanager which had quite a lot of helpful tips, around like framing what you've done in jobs in terms of outcomes/skills rather than just a mini job description of the job, and stuff like that. I did manage to get an interview for one of the jobs I was applying for after making those changes (although I'm horrible in interview so no luck, although I ended up moving to a new role within my current organisation after that anyway due to a restructure so kinda stopped looking).
Also some of the stories on it are quite funny/crazy lol
