most of the recruitment agencies have help in writing CV's and different templates
If you've got Microsoft Word on your PC you've probably got some suitable templates already. These instructions are for Word 2002 but other versions are fairly similar:

Open Word.
If the 'New document' pane isn't already show down the right hand side of your screen, click File > New.
Under 'New from Templates', click 'General Templates'
Click on the 'Other Documents' tab.
You can then choose between 'Elegant', 'Contemporary' or 'Professional resumes. (If you do so, you'll get a standard format with dummy information - which you can overwrite - already filled in). Alternatively you can use the 'Resume wizard' to tailor-make your own cv document.

As 4getmenot states, recruitment agencies often have cv templates on their websites. This one offers useful advice and then, if you click on the 'this format' link at the foot of the page, you can download a suitable template as a Word document:

Question Author
do you know if there is anything on apple and how if so,how can i find it?
Microsoft do a version of Word for the Mac as part of the Office for Mac suite.
I stopped using it a few years back when Apple released their iWork software.
This gives you Pages (word processing and DTP), Numbers (spreadsheets) and Key Note (interactive presentations like PowerPoint). Pages has loads of templates for CVs (resume). It's so easy to use and gives professional looking documents.
You can also open and save Word files which is handy if you need this feature.

More info from the link below:

http://www.apple.com/uk/iwork/

You could also try free templates in .rtf which can be opened and edited with most word processing software on both PC and Mac computers. See link below:

This website has most common CV formats, i.e., functional resumes, chronological resumes and combination resumes. Hope it will help you to update yours: http://www.hloom.com/browse/professional-resume-templates
