- You must put ALL the exams with grades you have EVER taken.
- it depends how far you took your education...not sure where you're from but if you've got a-levels, you list those and then just write a sentence saying i have 6 gcse's etc... if u've only got gcse's at the moment, list them all and write the grades... but concentrate more on your previous experience since u've had 4 jobs...good luck!
- write your best subject/relevant to application grades in detail. Then put eg: 2 c 3 d etc. Then at the last page of the cv fill in the grades in detail. the reason why is that a prospective employer will only look at the first few paragraphs to rule out unsuitable people. you must remember that they can see many cvs so make yours stand out.
- Put in all of your grades in unless there is a grade that is bad and irelevent to the job ( like a Geography grade U for a security guard). if you have a reallly bad grade but its relevent include it. remember to include work experiance and references as well as intrests and other qualifications (such as a first aid award or music grade)
