Keep it short and to the point. One page is more than enough for a resume for teens
Include the hours and days you are available to work.
Tailor the resume for each job you wish to apply for EG: Cashier talk about your maths expertise
Ensure you have great references, they can be your coach, teacher or a family friend who has known you for a significant amount of time.
BE HONEST don't say you have done something if you haven't!
Check you spelling! Have someone else look over and proofread for you
Have an appropriate email address. daddyslittleprincess@……. Is NOT appropriate. Instead, simply use first name and surname@………
Your voicemail message should be simple and appropriate – no funny stuff or practical jokes if they are expecting employers to call.
When you are handing your resume in in person, you should ask for the manager and choose the right time of day to go in. Don’t approach staff during a busy period.
When handing in the resume, you should dress as you are going for an interview.
