1. Include action words that highlight your skills.
The experiences such as summer or part-time jobs are not a waste, do not hesitate to include the skills you might have developed in those positions using action words such as, led, managed, maintained, operated, recommended, etc.
Here are some examples:
- Communicated with customers, managed requests, and shared complaints with manager to help make improvements
- Managed cash register drawer of $400.00
Many of the skills acquired from unrelated experiences can be put in your resume. The key is to find ways to demonstrate your dedication, dependability, creativity, and work ethic with the right words.
2. List relevant courses or projects you have experienced.
