In addition to the tips of the thread mentioned by Rors,

- Mention your school projects (highlight achievements and do not just enumerate tasks).
- Stress on projects that are relevant to the job you are applying for. This could mean that you will have a different version of your CV for different job applications.

For templates, there's plenty of them on Google. Use the template, but write your own content :)

If you dont have previous professional work experience it is usually better if your CV does not exceed a page or a page and a half

If MBAs with 7 years of experience can make their CV in one page, I'm pretty sure a new grad can :)

It doesn't matter how many projects you did, you won't be able to mention more than 3 anyway. The difference between applications is which one you put first, which one you elaborate on more, etc.

Once you go down the CV slippery road you start to develop ambitions, and once you develop ambitions, it's goodbye happiness.

ok thx , i got the general idea , now let's go for the english
i need to use good english , so if some of u guys are fluent in english u can post me some words (along with their meaning) so i can use them
of course these must be useful words that i might need , not words like milf or squirt
anyway i will post some sentences and i wish if u can formulate them in better sentences :D

"during my 4 years at ULFG2 i was involved in many projects (feel free to add a "description word" here) , these projects were a mix of computer based projects or reports and research
- a installation electrique (translate it to english) project were i had to do some researches and find a real house map and study the electrical consumptions + do the wiring and installing electrical instruments
- electronic projects on pc boards , like censors and frequency counters and AC to DC power supply , where the work was to find the material and place it on the boards w nla77emoun :P , also censor projects (smoke detector , mizen 7arara) and similar electronic projects
- software based projects on C++ , VB.NET , i did these projects alone (H) ,they were projects about games , my programming skills are also remarkable

please translate where i need translation and formulate me good english sentences :D
feel free to ommit some of the useless stuff if u want
