Things You'll Need:
- Resume Paper
- References
- Prior Experience
-
Step 1
First off you want to list YOUR contact information at the top of your resume. Sometimes you may want to include the Contact info of the place you are applying for, but that is mainly if you are sending our multiple resumes.
-
Step 2
You start by listing off your objective. For Example: To work part time as a store manager.
-
Step 3
List your previous Experience. Make sure to include the name of the position you held, where you worked, your supervisor, the dates you worked there, and then finally THREE bullets describing what you did. You don't want to add too many things, it may look too cluttered.
-
Step 4
You can then add some other qualifications, hobbies, or things you are good at doing. MAKE SURE THESE ARE RELEVANT to the job you are applying for!
-
Step 5
Add your references. Three is a GREAT number. Not too many but not too few. Make sure they are people that will give you a good reference because they play a BIIIIIGGGG part in whether or not you get the job.
-
Step 6
Print on RESUME PAPER! It is very important to use Resume paper and you will find it for an affordable price at an office supply store. Make sure the Water Mark is right-side up.
-
Step 7
ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS include a cover letter with your resume. You can talk about the position you are seeking and how you found the job. Don't make it too long, but don't make it too short either.
