Common challenges

Why is a first resume so hard to write?

  • Little or no work history

    Entry-level postings still list requirements, and a blank work section feels like there is nothing to say.

  • Not knowing what counts

    Class projects, volunteering, clubs, sports and part-time jobs all show skills employers look for.

  • Not knowing the words

    Employers search for skills by name. Students often describe the right experience in different words.

  • Many applications at once

    Internship and first-job searches mean many applications, and each posting is a little different.
