    Need help with Job CV

    Ok I'm 16 and I need a job (A couple of places I rang need CV's hence the thread), I worked at McDonalds, but embaressingly didn't pass the 3 week trial due to managers bullshit excuses of why I'm not right there, I haven't yet received my GCSE results which will likely

    Maths - C
    English/Science - D or C
    the rest will be E or lower

    What should I include in my CV? I haven't really done anything in my life to be fair, I go out and socialise with friends and smoke pot, that's all I do, so I need help of what to include in my CV, should I include my McDonalds employment? (I could just say it wasn't right for me), etc I just need subjects to cover and shit.

    The places I've want too are a supermarket, and also a wholesale supermarket.

    You should either stay in education till your 18 or look for some apprentiship type work to gain expierience.

    If you stay in education you could potientially get £30 a week through EMA, while gaining qualifications at the same time so its what i would advise but its up to you. Its very difficult atm to get a job atm

    Once your 18 you can apply for Job seekers allowance where they will help you with making CV's and finding jobs along with paying you £60 a week while you still havn't found a job.

    I am still in education, I'm doing an electricians course starting in September, though I need money for new clothes, going out to places, and spare for some pot :)

    Put down good positive hobbies on your CV, lie a bit tbh.

    Put down any charity work you've done or stuff similar to that as it looks really good. In your description of how you would describe yourself make sure you refer yourself as "an enthusiastic worker", "confident", "friendly to work with" and so on, the kind of things they want to hear.
