CV Help, No Education.?



I am a 16 year old school leaver. I left due to family problems and have no qualifications eg standard grades.

I am now making a CV for a job. I've got things to put under Personal Details, and Employment (I have done lots of jobs), but what do i put under education, or how do i get about telling the employer i have nothing,

I am applying for a simple admin assistant job.

A quick 10 points to first serious answer.

Make sure you put your employment details at the top of your CV... this will be the part that the employer willl be interested in...your education can go at the bottom (just before hobbies etc). You can say that you attended so-and-so schools. Also have you ever gained any NVQ's or industry qualifications? safety? food hygene? till operation? Vocational qualifications can be put in education too.

Id order it like this

Personal info

Work experience

List some of your main acheivements at work, ie learnt IT skills or made lots of sales

Education
Any professional qualifications achevements
just list schools attended

Personal interests

Good luck mate!
You can still say what schools you attended even if you didn't get any qualifications. You can say how long you studied subjects and if there's any vocational subjects you did mention those. Don't leave the education section blank, just say where you went to school and put lots about all the experience you'd had.

Good luck
Emphasis relevent experience, if you have 0 GCSEs then I would suggest leaving off the 'education' section.
on a CV nover write in the first person, so never put 'i am a diverse driven etc etc' say instead 'a diverse driven etc etc'

under education include all certificates won, even if tehy are not academic.

make the cv one page only and begin with your individual statement to grab them by the balls, this is the most important bit.

don't use large font as they'll see through it.
Put your other work experiences, and the schools you attended !!!
Andy says it well. Write out the education institutes out under 'education'. You need not specify completed or not. When you're at the interview in person you could mention it, and I'm sure it'll be OK.

GoodLuck. Hope you get the Job.
Lie and make it up or u can still put what course work you have done
