How to prepare for a High School Resume

The purpose of an objective is to sum up in one sentence what the candidate wants from a potential employer. An objective is used to allow the candidate to specifically define the area of work he is trying to obtain. Objectives typically contain preferences on industry, department, or specific job title. Objectives are not always necessary but can be the most read sentence on a resume.

Full Addresses & Phone Numbers High Schools Colleges Trainings & Programs Example:Excel TECC Mayfield High School 6116 Wilson Mills Road Mayfield Village, Ohio 44143

Specific Contact Information includes: Company Name, Location Job Title How long did you work there? Description of duties Example: Target, Mayfield Heights Cashier January February 2013 Assisted guests with sales

Awards, Projects, Targeted Goals, Etc. Examples: Honor Roll Led team in points (19.4) rebounds (7.9) 3PT% (38.9%) and steals (2.1) Art & Media Portfolio Named First Team Athlete Perfect Attendance AVID

Group Name, Location Title/Role How long did you participate? Description of roles Example:Humane Society Volunteer, Euclid Volunteer Crew Member January February 2013 Assisted with animal cage cleaning, dog walking, bathing and brushing Junior Varsity Basketball Team, Youth Choir, Etc.

Anything you’re good at and proud of.

Anything you like to do.

Employment references. The more recent bosses are the most important ones. Associate references. This can include youth group leader, peer volunteer, co-workers, but be cautious of their appropriateness and professionalism. Typically older, wiser, and more experienced than you, who would know your working abilities. Educational references. Recent students should ask previous educators. And highly specialized careers like Medicine, Science, the Law, etc… these are careers where your intellectual background and training are always of interest. Community figures. Think of someone who can vouch for you as a person. A friend or next door neighbor is ok. But a well-known local figure is better. Try to think of anyone you know who has some sort of standing in the community.

Please ask your references if they mind you using them as a reference! Then… First & Last Name Title/Relationship Address (professional) Phone number (ask them!)
