Resume 101

This article is about getting an early start on making a resume while in high school. It is very beneficial to yourself if you get it done now, so that you aren't trying to remember things later... then as life goes on, you just keep adding your achievements and activities to your resume.

Some resume features include the essential and the optional. the essential stuff include things like: your name and contact information, educational background, work experience, academic experience, and other relevant skills. the optional stuff includes things such as: an objective or a job target, references(sometimes required on separate sheet of paper), and other personal interests.

One of the most important parts of your resume is making sure that you have made everything just perfect for yourself. It is absolutely vile that you proofread your resume. Some of the smallest errors may seem unprofessional. Maqke sure that you have someone review it before you submit it. Be sure that it is short and sweet. Use legible font. Print your resume on good paper so it looks neat. Remember to save a copy on a disc or other device.

Those are just some helpful hints. It really does help to have someone list out those things that you need on your resume. I am thankful that I have a copy of my own resume. It took a while, but it is well worth the effort when you have the finished product.
