    Writing a Resume with Little to No Experience

    Commenters have been asking what they should do if they're just breaking
    into the job market or lack experience, but still need to create a resume.
    Starter resumes, or resumes for first time job seekers, can still
    highlight useful experience, education, and show a potential employer what
    you have to offer. Here are a few tips for designing a starter resume that
    rocks.

    Choose a basic format.
    Templates are available online, and are included in
    many word processing programs.

    Provide up to date contact information. Include a daytime phone number and
    a valid email address. If you have a cutesy email address, consider
    registering one consisting of only your name and/or initials to use just
    for resumes. This allows you to make a professional first impression.

    Include any relevant experience you do have, such as babysitting or
    volunteer work. If you have completed coursework at school that is
    relevant to the job you're applying for, include that as well.

    List any activities or organizations that you hold a leadership role in,
    such as president of the Latin club or captain of a sports team. Include a
    statement about how this activity has helped you to develop responsibility
    or leadership skills.

    Avoid padding your resume or adding fluff.

    List your personality traits, skills, and education to the best of your
    ability.
    Be sure your resume presents you as a professional. If you have
    any doubts, contact your counselor or career center and ask them for help
    with formatting and proofreading. Youre on your way to your first job,
    and a high quality resume is the first step.
