What you’re talking about is basically hard skills and soft skills. Company’s expect to have to train hard skills. Stuff like how do you operate a cadge register or what is the procedure for taking a drive through order. You need not worry about hard skills if you haven’t had a job. What you’re selling yourself on is soft skills that are transferable across jobs. Things like good listener, self starter, grasps concepts quickly, has dynamic problem solving skills. Those skills are transferrable across all jobs.
Thank you and do you think I should write on my cv that I’ve never worked and would like to be trained?

Let the interviewer know how your skills would help you accomplish task pertinent to the job
I also recommend taking experiences or volunteer opportunities and utilize the skills you had with those things.
For example I volunteered at a library when I was younger before I had a job. My resume way back then just read "Volunteered at:"
And listed the skills utilized for that; Attendance, organization, learning capabilities, Typing speeds, "engaged in customer interactions when help was requested; if it was outside of my scope of knowledge I notified a more experienced employee.
Best of luck.
