Students and graduates

The College Student Resume and High School First Resume are built around education and activities. The Internship Resume and Graduate Split Resume give projects and coursework their own sections. Once you have a first role, the Entry Level Resume shifts the balance.

First jobs in a field

Field-specific junior examples show how a short history is presented in context: the Junior Software Engineer, Junior Data Analyst, Nursing Student and New Grad Nurse resumes each do this differently.

Changing careers

The Career Change Resume uses a hybrid structure that leads with transferable skills; the career change templates and functional layouts offer other versions of that approach. For anyone writing a resume for the first time, the free resume-building guide is the place to start.
