A resume or VITA, is an employment history. At the top of the page place your full name centered, below that and centered your address and on the last line your phone number. Never include anywhere your age or marital status or kids, etc. That is information that is illegal for the employer to ask so why provide it.
Next put where you attended school, college education or high school with date of graduation and diploma or degree.
Next list by most recent first the jobs you have held or volunteer positions you have held. Include the full name of the business, address, phone number, and the person who was your immediate supervisor. If that person is no longer there try and provide a name of a supervisor who knew you. Then briefly describe the job, including responsibilities, duties, etc., focusing on those that will show you are reliable and have experience similar to the job you now want. Then list reason for leaving - moved, school, layoff due to downsizing, did not make probation, and that terrible statement of fired (which you can list as personality issue)
A resume should be updated at least once a year and always focused on the skills required for the job you are seeking.
The reason you put the most current job or volunteering (which counts 1/2 usually for work experience) is that is the easier for the prospective employer to check out.
At the end you can, not required, list references. There are NOT relatives or friends but teachers or business associates who have said they would give you a good reference. Some people attach written statements of those people.
Not all job applications require a resume but if you dont attach the resume to the job application, it has all the information you need for fill out completely the job application.
Make sure you never lie on the application because whether in a day or a year, the employer then can terminate you for that dishonesty.

Education, job history, and experience. If it's your first job and all you have is high school, then your job prospects are limited to ones that don't need resumes.
