nothing to put on CV

[kbwebb]

what can i do? i have no achievements, hobbies etc to put on my cv. I never went to clubs or anything like that to put down either. i dont even have any work experience at all.

I would go out and do a little volunteer experience hun, I volunteered at a youth club a couple years ago for just 2 hours a week on one evening and it's amazing how much you can milk out of one thing, most towns have a volunteers' bureau.

Most job centres can give you advice on what you can put on your CV, but I agree with the above poster, get out there and start getting some experience. One really easy thing to consider is something like how I volunteer at my local playgroup, we were going anyway and they needed people to help open and close, it's so little time out of my day to get there 10 mins earlier and leave 10 mins later to open and lock up and clean the cups.

Everyone starts their first job without any work experience whatever age they are so try not to worry about that. What I would do is go see a CV adviser either at the job centre or future prospects. They can help you write a CV using your qualifications and your time spent as a SAHM (assuming that is correct for you?). You might be surprised at what you have done in the past that you can put on there for skills.

One you have done that voluntary work is your best bet. You can go online at do-it.org.uk and create a profile and specify your interests and what time you can give.

If you want any help with your CV you can PM me if you like. I used to work for my Mum who runs a CV writing service.

Volunteer, join a club, get some hobbies - all the things you are missing are easily rectifiable

Creative writing in your spare time? I put tha down in interests and hobbies as like you, i dont have clubs or anything to put in, you can volunteer easily enough too, i volunteered for 6 weeks at salvation army and you don tneed to volunteer to often if you dont have much spare time x
