Basic CV Example for Part time and Full time jobs
This is the most common format of CV. It can be used as a good base for applying to almost any postion. In this CV you must include a personal statement/summary, your previous employment history, your education history and any relevant skills. You can also include a section about your hobbies and interests but make sure you keep in relevant to the positions you’re applying for.
The golden CV size is two pages, more than this and the recruiter will most likely lose interest.

Graduate CV Example
If you’ve recently graduated from university and you’re looking for your first Full time job or graduate placement, you’ll have to structure your CV in a slightly different way to when you’re applying for a normal job.
As a recent graduate, it’s likely you’ll be a little light on the work experience side so it’s important to show off your recent studies. This will be the first section right underneath your personal statement. It’s also important to go into detail about the modules you’ve completed as this will show a wider understanding of the subject. This is especially important if you’re looking for a graduate role in a field which is related to your study.
