whats the best form for a design student to show their CV to employers.?

What kind of design student are you talking about?  If it is a type of study that you can design anything small, it is better to have a CV with links to your sample work, such as Web design or clothing design.  Of course, if you design buildings or bridges, it is hard to show any sample work on CV.

Well, taking into account that resumes (and cover letters) for graduates (and not only) are the most important part of the job search, one should pay very much attention to what they comprise. \nAs a college student, you have to target your resume to your employer (meaning highlighting the experience a specific job requires). Then your resume must be goal oriented (for the same purpose....for the employer to see you are oriented towards a career). \nThen how does a resume look "impressive"? By adding everything into it: work experience, education, SUMMER JOBS (don't forget about them....during college they are very important as they show you are not wasting your time in vacations), intership etc. \nDon't forget to proofread your resume and to add some contact information.

Definitely include a letter, even if it's just to say who you are and why you want to participate. Also update your CV and make sure it notes everything that is relevant to the job (or program, education).

You mean a Resume.  A general resume will be only one page long.  The only thing you should put on a second page would be your References.  Start with your name, address, phone numbers and email on the first four lines centered on top of the page.  Make your name a slightly larger bold font.  Then a few lines down list your job experience.  Starting with your most recent job first.  Then skip a few lines and list your Education background.  At the very least, if there is no college, list where and what years you attended high school and when you graduated.  Then you can list any specialties, i.e. equipment, machines or talents/experience that you have that would pertain to the job you are looking for.  Last list at least three employer or business references.  Each list should have the heading first.  I.e.  EMPLOYMENT, EDUCATION, REFERENCE, PERTANENT QUALIFICATIONS.\nKeep it short and sweet.  Print it on a calm colored paper with print in Black and a size that is easy on the eyes to read.  \nThe resume should catch the eye (you can use marbled paper or a distinguished font), be easy to read and easy to reference.  Your resume isn't a place for humor, or kidding around.  Any employer is going to want a quick read, an over view of you.  If it is too wordy, it could go straight into the trash.  If it is on really annoyingly bright paper or is in such a hard font to read, again it could be trash.  Try to make sure you fill in any gaps in employment with explaination.  I think that is about it.  I know when I would hire people, I looked for a clean, short and sweet, easy to read resume.  That is where I began my search.  If the resume didn't fit into those categories than it was out.  You could google 'sample resume' online and preview a format that you could use.\nGood Luck!  Happy Hunting! I hope this was helpful.

Below are some sample resumes for your reference:\nhttp://www.resume-resource.com/samples.html\n\nIf you are willing to spend a little money:\nhttp://www.resume-templates.com\n\nHere are some guidelines:\n1. If you have less than 10 years of experience, you want your resume to be one page.\n2. Generally, clearly show your name, mailing address, email address if available, and best phone number(s) to contact you.\n3. Then show your education, work experience, any interests, achievements, and skill sets. Under your work experience, it is not a list of your job descriptions (this is a common mistake). You should instead indicate what you have accomplished and the results.  Use action verbs.\n4. If you are looking for your first job or intend to change job function / industry, you may want to state your objectives.\n5. You should customize your objective to fit the specific job. A good idea is to look at the job description and show how your objective is a good fit for the job you are applying.\n6. There is no one “correct” format.  It depends on your profession and personal style.\n7. Also, try not to use technical words and jargons. Do not abbreviate.\n\nYou can post your resume at:\nhttp://www.monster.com\nhttp://www.careerbuilder.com\nhttp://hotjobs.yahoo.com\n\nI would also go to your bookstore and find a resume book in the business/career section. You can also find more examples and templates online if you do a search.\n\nGood luck and have a nice day.

Correspondence to business and organisations has to be written in a formal manner. \nA cover Letter should never be longer than one page.\nMention achievements or strengths, apart from your qualifications and job experience. (uncertain what is meant here). Check out Writing about your achievements.\nYour letter should be address to a specific person. Job research is very important. One of the results of your job research should be the name of the person responsible for the recruitment. \nKeep the letter to the point. The letter must be easy to read and follow.\n\nDo not send a hand written cover letter if you are not asked. If the job advert specifies a http://www.cvtips.com/letter_writing_sample.html letter writing sample then send one! Make sure the letter is error free and that the same font is used throughout. Make sure that your letter and CV are similar in style.\nUse top quality stationary. The envelope, the paper and the style of your CV stationary should match that of the cover letter.\nMake sure that whatever you write in your cover letter is backed up by facts or at least be able to convincingly back them up in the interview.\nConvey your enthusiasm about the job opportunity. You have to show that you are confident in your expectations about the job selection but do not be 'cocky'.\nSign your cover letter and write your name in block capitals under your signature.\n\nMore details on http://www.cvtips.com/how_to_write_a_cover_letter.html

MS Word or Works both have templates to use when creating a resume. You may not have 'real' work experience, but that doesn't matter too much. Think of your resume as a one page ad used to sell yourself to an employer. Sports, community involvement, school programs, basically anything that you are involved in should be listed on your resume if you don't have work experience.

Do you prefer hand made china or the mass produced kind? There is something about individual items that gives them an edge over mass produced products, isn't there? Most of the time, even the best resume software cannot replace the individual touch that a real person can give to a resume. \nA resume program cannot read the job advert and tune the resume to the job requirements. Resume software cannot actually show that you increased newspaper readership by 15% once your ideas were implemented. It is better to use a professional resume writing service where you deal with real people, or even better, write it yourself. Sometimes, the writing style of a professional writer will give the impression that you are a much better writer than you really are, leading to expectations from the employer that you simply cannot meet.\n\n\nEmployers & recruiters receive thousands of resumes and they are used to seeing resumes created by programs. The candidate is immediately labelled as non- creative and dependent on templates, something that does not reflect well when it comes to attitude and work ethic. Keep your resume based on recent accomplishments related to the job you are applying for. Give real numbers and facts to back your claim\n\nmore info and samples on www.cvtips.com/resume.html

putting it in a motivation letter would be a better idea i think. resume includes work experience and education (sometimes hobbies,other qualifications, etc)

My personal favorite - the templates in Resumes To Go by Yana Parker  These are Word templates, so they do not require any special software.  Also they have the design already done for you. What is left for you to do is to change the wording to refelct you.
