Resumes
The goal of a resume (& the application) is to snag an interview!
Attach a resume to applications.
Keep a “master copy” that you’ll tailor to each job you interview for depending on what skills they're requiring.
Bring 2 copies to the interview in case there's more than one interviewer.
Writing a high school student resume can feel impossible if you don’t know where to start. Luckily, there are plenty of resume templates you can use to help you decide what to include and how to format your experience and skills.
Your work experience doesn’t have to be loaded with jobs. You can simply add projects and club participation in the body of your resume. However, you should write your bullet points like you would for a job. Highlight any responsibilities and accomplishments relevant to the job you’re applying for now. For example, if you’re looking for a job in sales, emphasize your ability to work in groups and create a good customer experience.
