how do you write a resume with little experience?

Answer 1

Unless you are in grade school, you have a lot more experience than you realize!

Running a household: organizational skills, chemistry (cooking, cleaning), bookkeeping, software and computer skills.

Schoolwork: classes and extracurricular activities

Church: whatever activities you do there

You'll have 2 pages before you know it!

Answer 2

Life experience can be a substitute for on the job experience. If you have belonged to clubs and organizations, list them and detail any projects in which you have been involved and any offices you have held.

Consider the type of business - Are there special skill they might be seeking that you have developed through hobbies, extra-curricular activities or even at home?

For example, an interior decorating firm might be impressed if you indicate that you sew or have an art background. A law office or insurance company might give you preference if you have volunteered in your school library or participated in publishing your school newspaper.

Good luck with your job search!

Answer 3

Write a skill-based resume, listing bullets of the skills you possess:

-Fully conversant with MS Office suite of applications
-Excellent interpersonal skills
-Data entry to 125 characters/minute
-etc., whatever is applicable

Educational background can also be amplified (if you have it) by providing GPA and/or major areas of focus (BS Business Administration, Marketing emphasis, GPA 4.0.)

Answer 4

Just take what experiences you have and shape them to the job your applying for. You'd be surprised how many things you have that you can make sound like they apply to something. You just have too look at small things from a perspective of what did i learn from this experience, and secondly quality is always preferred over quantity anyway.

Answer 5

Add more of what you can do, awards or acheivements.

Good Luck
