Answer 1

Be careful when you use "there" and it should be "their". Also, don't list hanging out with your friends as a hobby. That's like saying I like to watch tv. Not gonna help. Do you like to travel or read or do something that shows how smart you are?lol Do you play an instrument or paint instead of Art and music?

Answer 2

Hello, you might want to check Europass CV, it helped me before. I've used their CV's model, and caused good impression when i gave it in Job's interviews.
