Ok, sorry for off-topic from fit tennis players (Lisicki and Sharapova being the fittest two imho), don't want to make a new article as I make enough off-topic articles, but need to write CV as looking to get some temp work over the summer and need to email off my CV tonight to the company.
Any ideas on what to include/what not to include? (I know not to say bleed black and white thanks to Tash <laugh> )

Name, address, contact details, DOB/Age and availability

Brief bullet point synopsis of skills such as MS Office products etc

Name of previous employer, dates worked and short description of duties involved. Try to keep to a paragraph or two

Educational achievements

Hobbies etc.
 
16... So no GCSE results yet? And probably no work history either... Sounds like you'll have to go all out on extra-curricular activites and your 'personal profile', maybe ask a teacher or two if you can put them down for references too.
 
I am gobsmacked that someone with that score needs to ask that question. I think about 104 or 105 is average.

Could be veiled bragging, but it's not a bragworthy score really. 100 is designed to be the average score, but I think you're right that the true average is above, with the majority of people scoring 85-115, and almost all scoring 70-130, depending on the test, on some you have to score roughly 150 to be in the top 2% (ie Mensa eligible).

Include as much work exp as you can and make sure that there are no spelling mistakes as it just makes you look like an idiot :D
 
Cheers guys, made a decent start.
Haven't done much work in past so just wrote about my work experience (at the place where I'm hoping to get the job) and my refereeing/playing football. Get majority of results back in August, so just put down results of exams I've done and what I'm predicted.
Also wrote hobbies and computer abilities like on word, excel, powerpoint and photoshop.
Our school was **** for Extra-Curriculum activities so haven't got too much in that department though :(

Ah work experiece #memories
 
I worked in a small local record shop for a week. Drinking tea and listening to great music all day whilst helping hot women find the vinyl they wanted.

The final week I was working in Debenhams in charge of the knitted goods section. That sucked.

Mine was at Unipres in Washington

1st week IT Technician

2nd week Maintenance. Climbing presses the size of a house. Covered in grease, kept my steel toecap boots tho
 
What a comeback from Tsonga, love Federer but big respect for Tsonga now.

My work experience was alright, decent crack but boring jobs. One day stuffed letters in envelopes for like 3 hours :s

I did a MENSA IQ test and scored 151 for my age (14) which is roughly equal to 158 as an adult. :)
