Writing a Resume with Little to No Experience
Commenters have been asking what they should do if they're just breaking
into the job market or lack experience, but still need to create a resume.
Starter resumes, or resumes for first time job seekers, can still
highlight useful experience, education, and show a potential employer what
you have to offer. Here are a few tips for designing a starter resume that
rocks.
Choose a basic format. Templates are available online, and are included in
many word processing programs.
Provide up to date contact information. Include a daytime phone number and
a valid email address. If you have a cutesy email address, consider
registering one consisting of only your name and/or initials to use just
for resumes. This allows you to make a professional first impression.
Include any relevant experience you do have, such as babysitting or
volunteer work. If you have completed coursework at school that is
relevant to the job you're applying for, include that as well.
List any activities or organizations that you hold a leadership role in,
such as president of the Latin club or captain of a sports team. Include a
statement about how this activity has helped you to develop responsibility
or leadership skills.
Avoid padding your resume or adding fluff.
List your personality traits, skills, and education to the best of your
ability. Be sure your resume presents you as a professional. If you have
any doubts, contact your counselor or career center and ask them for help
with formatting and proofreading. Youre on your way to your first job,
and a high quality resume is the first step.

Re: Writing a Resume with Little to No Experience
Hello guys,please can someone tell me why nigerian firms don't give jobs to other africans???
I' ve read alot of postings on this site before deciding to post mine and i hope someone will answer me.
I graduated from one of the most prestigious universities in nigeria and with a good grade 2 years ago.75% or more of my mate who are nigerians got jobs and some of them are still choosing the firms in which they will like to work while i've never been called for any interview.I had to go back to school so that i wont be idle as am already jobless.Am completing a master
program right now and i'm really wondering wether the "african Big brother" has it own way of doing the South african xenophobia.
NB:I know many african who are in the same situation.
