How to write your resume or CV if you have no work experience
Landing your first job can feel daunting, especially when creating a resume with little to no formal work experience. In today's episode of the From Dorms to Desks Podcast, we break down how to build a standout resume by reframing what counts as experience. Learn to highlight academic projects, volunteer work, campus involvement, and even part-time jobs to demonstrate valuable transferable skills like leadership, teamwork, and responsibility.
We cover key differences between a UK CV and a US resume, emphasizing regional expectations like length, formatting, and spelling. Discover the essential sections to include, from a compelling personal statement to a detailed education history. You'll get practical tips on choosing the right format—like the reverse-chronological or functional—and how to use action verbs and quantifiable achievements to show potential employers you're ready to contribute from day one. Whether you're a high school student or a recent grad, these strategies will help you craft a professional resume that opens doors.
