      Put in your achievements to date, your modules that you have covered in your course of study, relevant result slips,

      adding on..

      hobbies

      books/course which you're currently reading/taking..

      any special certificates which you got previously?

      working and shcooling experiences need to be in desending order thus they know who's your latest employee etc..


      attach copies of your grades testimonials behind..and a latest photo of yourself on the front page of the CV..

      you might want to consider viewing different samples of CV online first if you can find them and choose the format which you prefer..

      Don't brag or write things which you can't justify,expect that you might be asked about these in interview.So write things that are specific to job and include things that mit be relevant to your application like summer jobs or courses that you took and makes u different from others.

       

      Just keep in mind that you will have to answer for things in CV for interview.
