By all means do not use a template; they're terrible and don't give you any flexibility to sell what you need to sell. Go to Monster.com or look at resume samples in a book store to get an idea what a good resume looks like. Be sure to list a specific objective, identifying the name of the internship and name of the employer for whom you would like to work. Yes, tailor that to each position applied for. Decide on headings based on what you have to market. For example, if you participated and/or led class projects, use a category called, "Class Projects" and detail the procedures/skills/results obtained in those projects as well as any leadership role you played. Be sure to list activities and leadership roles in organizations. If your GPA is good, include that information. If not, leave it off. If you don't have a lot of work experience, take up some space listing classes that might not be obvious to an employer (don't list introductory classes in your major!), particularly classes outside of your major that relate to the internship you are going for. Don't underestimate the "unrelated" jobs you did in high school and college. Analyze the skills you used and include those as you detail what you did on the job -- don't let the resume read like a dry job description. I hope that helps. I don't have time right now to offer more advice, but will check back again later. Best wishes. |

Resume Lady has some good tips for you... One more, do not use the header &
footer function to list your contact information i.e., name, address, phone, email, etc. If you put this in a header, it "disappears" when viewed on-screen by a potential employer... "hendric33" wrote: I need to have a resume for internship and was wondering what would look the best? |
