Put your education and skills first

Without work experience, lead with your school or university, your skills, and your projects. Add part-time jobs or internships if you have them, and move work experience higher if it is your strongest section. Empty sections are hidden, so a short CV still looks complete.

No work experience? You can still create a student CV

You do not need a previous job to make your first CV. Start with your education, then add school or university projects, skills, volunteering, clubs, or courses. Leave the work experience section empty if you have nothing to add. Here is what a student CV without work experience can look like (illustrative example).

Questions about creating a student CV

Can I use MojCV to create my first student CV?
Yes. MojCV is a free CV and resume builder for high school, college, and university students, including those with no work experience. Use your education, skills, school projects, volunteering, and activities, choose a student template, leave unneeded sections empty, and download a PDF without creating an account.

Is the student CV builder really free?
Yes. Creating, editing, and downloading your CV as a PDF costs nothing. There is no subscription, no trial, and no payment at download, and the PDF has no watermark. MojCV is funded by advertising.

What should a student CV include?
Your education, your skills, and any projects, volunteering, courses, or part-time jobs. For examples and a full walkthrough, read how to write a student CV, or see how to create a CV with no work experience.

Can high school students use it?
Yes. Start with your school, your subjects or grades, your activities and volunteering, and any part-time or summer job. Your name is the only required field.

Which template should a student use?
Start with the Student tab in the template picker. Those templates give education, skills, and projects room on the page. Every template is free, and your content stays when you switch. See student CV templates.

Should a student CV include a photo?
It depends on the country. In the US, Canada, the UK, and Ireland, CVs and resumes usually have no photo. In many European countries a photo is common. The photo is optional in MojCV, so add it or leave it out.

Is it a CV or a resume?
Both. In the US and Canada the document is usually called a resume, and in the UK and many other countries a CV. MojCV creates the same document either way, in 30+ languages.

Can I create my student CV on my phone?
Yes. The builder works in any mobile browser, with no app to install. Create a CV on your phone.
