Whats CV? are you asking about Resume's.

Yes it's this, the french Resume's not the same for the english Resume's, and when I search on internet I found two or three different Resume

Here in the states, resumes have a general standard format:

name, professional/educational qualifications, followed by experience, folowed by special skills.

So, for example, you'd see:

Yankeelover
address and phone number

where i'm admitted to practice law

where I got my Bachelors and law degree

my practice areas

my work experience, in reverse chronological order, indicating dates i held the position, name of the company/firm, job title, job responsiblities

my skills, such as computer skills, etc


You can freelance things like font, spacing, alignment, but remember, you wanrt this to look professional.

If you link to the sites you found that have sample resumes/cv's, I can give you my opinion on them, appearance wise.
