Create an efficient document

Organize the skills you just identified into a document. Begin with finding a template that works for you, then personalize and refine this template with your own information.

Compile Your Resume

Types of Resumes

Chronological. List any prior work experience in reverse chronological order. Did you have a job throughout high school as a dog sitter or work at your local ice cream shop? Make sure to include these.

Functional. If you have not had prior jobs before, do not worry. In a functional resume, you can include skills you learned along the way. For example, did you develop public speaking skills through taking part in your high school speech and debate team? Are you familiar with computer applications such as Microsoft Word and Excel?

Combination. If you have work experience and applicable skills, put both on your resume. This gives a potential employer an overview of what you’ve done in the past, and what you know how to do.

References. Another option is to create a page of references. This will be useful if you do not have prior work experience. Write down the names of teachers, coaches, organization leaders, etc. who you have worked well with in the past. Include their contact information as well as relevant information about the interaction.

Design

Choose the ideal format - Depending on the recipient, upload your content onto a document that matches the setting. For example, a creative resume can have colors and a modern, innovative format. On the other hand, a traditional list format better suits an application towards a job in the technical field.
