Strategic Launch Resume Template

This template for writing a resume with no experience solves the problem that many students and others with no work experience have when they sit down to write their first resume.

How do you write a resume with no experience to include on the resume? Following the prompts and tips in this template will make writing your resume for your first job easy.

It is important to understand that not all skills and qualifications are developed through work experience. You can develop work skills and qualifications through many activities, even those that are not employment-related.

This template for writing a resume with no experience will guide you step-by-step on what to include in your resume for a first job.

This could include academic projects that demonstrate leadership strengths, various academic extracurricular activities, leadership roles in school clubs or sports teams, and coursework you completed that helped develop your skills in relevant areas that will be of use in your first job. Internships, if you have completed any, should also be included on your resume.

Volunteer work is another good way to gain experience that will help you in your future career. If you have worked in volunteer roles, make sure to include them on your resume.

Another compelling technique included in this template for writing a resume with no work experience is the space to include an excerpt from a reference letter that you may have received from a past teacher or others in a position to speak to your skills.

While the default colors of this template look great and catch attention, you can easily change the color scheme to match your personal brand. Changing the color scheme is as easy as a couple of mouse clicks and instructions are included with your template.
