Write the top of your resume, in three versions.
Say the job you want, how much experience you have and what you are good at. You get three short summaries with different angles to pick from and edit, including for people with no work experience yet.
How it works
- Enter the job you want and how much experience you have, even if it is none.
- Write your skills, strengths and anything you have done, in your own words.
- Get three summaries: skills first, results first, and personality and drive first.
- Pick the one closest to you, edit it, and put it at the top of your resume.
Questions people ask
Can I use it with no work experience?
Yes. Choose 'No work experience yet' and describe your training, studies, volunteering and strengths. The summary is built around those.
How long should a resume summary be?
Two to four sentences. Short enough to read in a few seconds at the top of the page.
Does it invent achievements?
No. It only uses what you wrote, and leaves out anything you did not give.
