How to write a CV (or resume) like a graphic designer?

I’m currently trying to get my CV sent out to a few agencies at the moment but I’m a bit stuck. I’m not really sure how I should tackle this to be honest. Should I do something really fancy or something really simple? Should I include some portfolio work or should I just wait and see if an interview is organized? And what format would be most suitable? This is pretty tough. I know it’s impossible to please everyone but I could do with some general advice and experiences!
