You can create a form for them to fill in. You can also have one or more upload fields so they will be able to upload a CV or a photo. All this data can be stored on your site, or can be sent to you as an email. From there on, it depends on what you need to do with this info.

Please if you need further information, post in the Forms section of the Forum

I was always wondering how to store it on the website. I am pretty broad in the field of web design, but I was never really good at forms.

The most usual way is to store the visitor's data in a database. Of course the script must have a section that will open the database table, and write the info in there. For images or other files that are uploaded by the visitor, what gets stored in the database is path to the file.
