These
you feeling like you have no experience to put on your resume.
We're going to teach you how to go ahead.
This is not a let me start by sharing a secret with you.
It's about what hiring managers are thinking and when they're not when they look at you as a young candidate.
I'm assuming that if you're watching this that you're relatively young candidate what they're not thinking
is they're not looking for somebody who's already an expert.
If the hiring manager was looking at a young candidate and looking for an expert then that hiring managers
crazy.
They're also not looking for a candidate whose interests do not align with what the organization that
the hiring manager works for does what they are looking for is alignment.
So for example if you are pursuing a degree in computer science and your resume is being sent to a technology
company that's good that shows alignment.
The other thing that hiring managers are looking for is they're looking for somebody who wants work
and who's coachable.
So that's something that you're going to do more in the interview series when you actually go and meet
people.
All right.
So how you're going to handle this on your resume is you're going to just modify the body section a
little bit.
Let's take Abigail for example.
Abigail is a sophomore in college and she's looking for an internship.
So first what Abigail is going to do is she is going to take the body section of her resume as you see
here and she's going to lead all this company name stuff instead she's going to replace that with headers
that show the three top priority skills from her resume.
Then she's going to reflect back.
She's going to think about all of her volunteer activities all of the student groups that she was in
in college and in high school.
Summer Activities extracurricular activities and then she's going to start putting in bullet points
underneath these skills to show when she's demonstrated these skills.
So for example if one of her skills is organization and Abigail was the secretary for one of her student
groups she's going to go ahead and put that underneath the organization section of her resume.
The second thing that Abigail is going to do here is she's going to add a projects section of her resume.
And underneath the projects she's going to do something similar.
So what is a project you're asking.
A project is something that you did for fun outside of school that's relevant or it can even be schoolwork.
So go ahead and make the projects that you've done.
Come in as long as the projects show the skills that you're trying to highlight.
So if you have something that you would like to ask to do on a particular topic or a comment that you
think would help any of the other class members go ahead and use the discussions feature here Anyuta
me to either start a discussion or a topic or respond to one that already exists.
