In your CV for a job, highlight your work experience, if any. Things like volunteering or training periods are more important than your first speaking place in high school. Emphasize and explain your performance in the positions you have held.

Regarding your academic degrees, add them all only from bachelor's degree onward and spell out if you have any specialization in any field. Keep in mind and mention only what can be useful to the employer. Be careful with your online profile.

The first thing is that the email you add is not something odd. Always use your real name and surname, if any. Also take care of your Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin profile, because now in the jobs they review these sites too.
