none vs no one

Please, could you tell me which is correct for the CV?

Bad habits: none / no one
Children: none / no one

Thank you!

' None', not 'no one'. Is it customary where you live to mention bad habits and children on a CV? Where I live, people don't do that.

It should be "none", not "no one". But, umm, I think your student is a liar. Everybody has SOME bad habits. If I were the employer, I wouldn't give her a job.

Well, I guess "bad habits" is not like "throwing socks round" ))) it means something like "smoking, drinking". She doesn't either smoke or drink

Haha! I have a wonderful mental picture of your student throwing her socks around. Or is it you who throws your socks?

Anyway, if she feels that it's important to put that information on her CV, she could just put the words "non-smoker" and "non-drinker" somewhere.
