RESUME WRITING A resource from eCampusTours.com Copyright 2013 all rights reserved careerexploration/ buildingyourresume/ highschoolresume

RESUME WRITING As a middle school student, you may think that you don't need a resume until you are about to graduate from college and begin your search for a fulltime job. However, high school students need resumes just as much as college students do. From getting into college to obtaining a part- time job, a resume is essential because college recruiters and employers alike want to see a brief summary of your abilities, education, and experiences. Here is what you should include in your resume.

HEADING  Your name, address, telephone number, and address should all go at the top of your resume. Also, remember to use an address that sounds professional.

OBJECTIVE  An objective lets college recruiters or potential employers know your main goal. If your target is a college recruiter, tailor your objective to that specific school. For example, your objective may be, "To earn a degree in Psychology at Boston College.  " If you want to get a parttime job, you will need to modify your objective to that particular job, such as "To obtain a parttime sales position with Hollister."

EDUCATION/ACADEMICS  In the education section, list the schools you have attended. Be sure to include your GPA if it is a 3.0 or higher. You can also mention any academic honors, awards, and/or recognitions that you have received. These can include honor roll recognitions, essay writing awards, science competitions, etc.

EXPERIENCE  The experience section should briefly give an overview of work experience that has taught you valuable skills.  Since many students do not have a lot of work experience, you can also describe class projects in which you have learned important skills or even leave this section out all together and concentrate on the education/academics and additional information/extracurricular sections.

ADDITIONAL INFO/EXTRACURRICULARS  The additional information or extracurricular section should be used to place key elements of your background that do not fit in any other section.  You may want to include: special skills, leadership roles, volunteer experiences, participation in sports, band, yearbook, etc. This section is where you can demonstrate your uniqueness

REFERENCES  Be sure to ask people if they would serve as your reference before you give their names out. You do not need to include your reference information on your resume. A statement at the bottom of your resume that says, "References available upon request," is sufficient.

 Having a resume prepared is just good sense. You never know when a recruiter at a college fair or a potential employer might request one.
