Step 1
Write a "Summary" section first, which should be no longer than a single paragraph. This section will state why you're seeking a job in a fine dining restaurant, what you will bring to the job and what you hope to get out of it. If you have any long-term career ambitions in the fine dining industry, include them in this section as well.
-
Step 2
List your skills next. Since you haven't had a job before, your skills take on even more importance than they normally would. In a bulleted list, write down every skill you have that is relevant to the job you're seeking. People skills, multi-tasking skills and patience under pressure are all good skills for employment in restaurants.

Step 3
Summarize your relevant experience. Even if you've never had a job, chances are you have some related experience, such as being a waiter at a church banquet, acting as cashier for your school store or cooking breakfast for hundreds at a neighborhood fund raiser.
-
Step 4
Write about your education and availability. If you're currently a student, you can combine these things into one section of the resume. Make sure you include the names of schools you've attended and the dates you were there. For your current school, list the hours and days of your classes.
-
Step 5
Give the names, addresses and phone numbers of two to three people who can confirm what your resume says is true and who will vouch for your character. These can be teachers, neighbors or family friends.

on 6/11/2009 most fine dining restaurants do not hire kids or people without serving experience, let alone those without any job experience whatsoever. the article is very misleading.
