Resume Template Example for Students and New Graduates (No Experience)

When you do not have a work history, the resume leads with what you have done that resembles work: a project with a result, a part-time job with responsibility, a club you actually ran. Keep it to one page and put the education block near the top, since it is your most recent credential.
