Every template online assumes ten years of job titles to choose from, and you have a part time shop job, some volunteering, and a lot of coursework. Describe the two formats you are weighing up and what you actually have to put on the page, and get a plain comparison of what each format shows off and hides, plus a clear recommendation for your situation.
