Hi there! I just wanted to say that despite having never worked in my life, this guide helped me land an interview for a 5 star internationally recognised resort. I am extremely happy to even have gotten this far whether I get the job or not. Thanks so much!
That's awesome! I hope you get the job.
@@Xamplio I wound up getting my first job! Thanks again.
How is that job going? ^^
@@ZettyLad unfortunately, life wound up happening and I ended up across the country back in my home state. It was a decent job however if not a bit stressful at times x) but overall I'm still using this template on my resume to try and get a new job down here.
@@Phillydreaming Awwwww, really? Damn, I’m sorry to hear about that. :( I also hope everything is okay with you and something not too bad or tragic ended up happening! 😅 Well, at the very least you get a bit of a break from the stress and such!!
Your 10 min video gave me knowledge of thousand dollars. I was always confused to prepare resume. I want simple but attractive resume and here it is. Thank you
I’ve been working in construction since high school, and in a few weeks will be finishing a certificate in healthcare. Totally new work field, and this video gave me a ton of confidence to making a new resume. Thanks!
Awesome! Confidence is key, so be sure to carry that confidence through the interview process. You got this!
Come on dude the title specifically stated no work experience. I literally have nothing, no volunteering, no part time job, I am starting from scratch.
Start by volunteering at churches or whatever
@@Razorbladebae I'm Muslim, not a Christian.
@@theonef570 I said or whatever. A nursing home, etc
@@theonef570 you can volunteer at a local mosque or help in Charity

I was always wondering how they do the 2 columns with zero margin and and top/bottom customization. Turn out it's with borders. Thanks to you I knew now. Thank you man 🖒.

One of the best video i have ever watched in youtube to increase my word skill level
Salute bro
Can you please demonstrate how to create a cover letter? I learned a lot about how to create a Resume from watching this video. Thanks for the content.
I've got a video on how to write a cover letter right here ruclips.net/video/wRo26Gth7u0/видео.html
It's an older video, but still holds true. Thanks for watching!
thanks alot sir
in the summary do i have to say. "i will be a great fit for the company because..." or can I just state that "I've proven" and add the things that they want in an employee that apply to me.
You typically want to avoid writing any "I" statements in the Summary. So instead of "I've proven great leadership skills over the past 5 years while managing projects" you'd say something more like "Proven leader with 5 years of experience managing projects."
Avoiding the first person narrative can help you word things more concisely and fit in more keywords. The conversational tone and "I" statements are a great fit for your cover letter.
I hope that helps!
hey so for experience, ive never done internship or anything like that, what do i do or put?
If you have any volunteer work, after school activities, church group, etc. you can always put that. But if you don't have anything to put, just don't put an experience section at all.
Xamplio okay thanks sm
Do i have to mention all the jobs I did in the past under experiences?
Kudos ❤
What happens when you have no prior job experience to type in? But you’re currently a university student.
My situation is kind of unique.. I’m 27, I’ve always been disabled (not mobility wise), and I’m also a stay at home mom.
I literally have no idea what I’m suppose to write for a resume or cover letter if I don’t have official work experience.
Do you have any tips?
Hi, Melanie - Wow, that is a unique situation, but you sound very strong! And though you might not have official work experience, we all know there are plenty of skills stay at home moms have to develop!
In your case, I would recommend leaning in to your university experience and any other activities or groups you've been involved in. So that means you'll likely have soft skills in your skills section. (Think about any skills you've picked up at university, odd jobs, and as a stay at home mom.) Your education section should also be more detailed than on a typical resume, meaning you list relevant courses, projects, achievements, etc.I would also write an objective/summary section near the top of your resume. This is where you can state what type of job you're looking for. It's also a handy trick to be able to put some keywords in your resume.
I have another video on my channel where I show how to make an entry level resume. I also have the template for free to download on my site: xamplio.com/career-resources
I hope that helps!
Can use this for a supermarket resume job
Awesomeness
Totally rad
Thank you for your video. Please make resume for career changer . Thanks
Thanks for the feedback! I just bumped it up in my "to do" list.
@@Xamplio did you get to it ?
which type of resume you shown in this video?
Fraud is no bueno, got it!
Nailed it.
So what exactly do we have to have on the bullet point? I’m just lost on this lol but thx for the informative vid
If you only have one bullet, you could just rewrite it as a few sentences (small paragraph). But if you do that, you'll want to do it for all job entries. I'd recommend trying to come up with some more bullet points to add, though.
thanks
On education section , I've finished my first year of college this year but I started my second year how can I specifically say that I'm still attending college or do they asked me this during the interview ?
You put the expected graduation date. So you can put something like “Graduating Spring 2024” or “Graduating 05/2024” for instance. I hope that helps!
I am in Word 11 and I cannot see ANY borders after clicking on the border box. For the time being, I'll just underline as I go through the "resume process."
Nice video! I've seen other people also put relevant coursework under their education section. Would you recommend that, or leave that information out?
If you don't have a lot of work experience to round out your resume, you can totally put relevant coursework on there. It helps beef up an entry level resume while also helping you match keywords.
No reference needed for this resume type?
I typically don't include references on the resume itself. If you want to add references, you could just create a new section using the same heading format and then put your references there.
what if you got no work experience do just say you have no work experience?
Hiii... Please I want to know, I have a bachelor in finance and I worked in a bank for few months, now I moved to another country and I'm a caregiver certified I don't know if I should include that experience on my cv. I'm looking for a caregivers jobs... Thanks
What version of Microsoft office are you using??
yeah, I'd like to know the same because this is not working for me
Saving this for when I graduate uni in 2 years 🤣😅
But what if ur 16 still in high school? 🥺
Now how do you add a picture?
Really do love z whole video but I couldn't do the ruler part, can you help out please?
Late reply here, but if the ruler isn't working out for you for whatever reason, I do have the templates available for free on my website: xamplio.com/career-resources
Do not use table on your CV. applicant tracking system(ATS) will remove all the tables and collams from the table.
Even if you later change the file to pdf?
Thanks for the comment! This template is pretty safe as it's only using tables for contact info and skills, but people can tweak as they see fit. If one is concerned they can always put the skills table at the bottom of the resume so that the ATS picks up all the work and education first, or just use a comma-separate list of skills in place of the table.
Hey bra so if u are still graduating wat do u write
I just put "Graduating MM/YYYY." So, for example "Graduating 06/2021" if you expect to graduate this spring.
Can you speak on tables in resume.is it good?
I'm now offering resume services! Find out more at xamplio.com/resume-services. Let's optimize that sucker and find your dream job!
What about personal information including date of birth,religion,nationality etc?
you don't need to include any of that
No work experience should mean you were never hired for a job. You don’t need qualifications to participate in volunteering or joining clubs in your school or community. Even experiences like babysitting your neighbour’s kid for example. They’re not interested in that role itself, but more into how that role made you, like being responsible, tolerant, etc
im being a fraud right now by copying 😂
anyone else having problem downloading the template?? or is it just me :(
You don’t have to write your resume on word, if you wanna be a bit more creative but not that good you can use resume templates in canva, a lot of good free ones
New video! 10 EASY tips to get a job right out of college: ruclips.net/video/5ZENumueCjc/видео.html
Thanks , pls job requirement says no experience, no edUcation , language ,, how the resume will be can it be like this ?
Everybody who makes these videos all do the same thing and never answer the question. Going from the Communications to food industry. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING will translate. What do you put with NO EXPERIENCE IN FIELD ?
Not with that attitude! There are soft skills that apply to almost all fields of work. Also, if you're early enough in your career, being able to demonstrate consistent, strong performance in any field will look good on a resume.
I do have volunteer work from church i have interpreting abilities and leader ship abilities involving directo g congtrolling resoruces i served my church for 11 years in biligngual services i voluntered for a year in my church to finances and also i have personal family bus si es accouting firm where I worked for seasons for little pay i also contribuyes and voluntered in my church projects for homeless People Men walking with christ and others worked at Restaurant and became a licensed minister for pastoral services
This is not working for me, you must have a different version of MS Word
This video makes no sense.The video says it's about how to make a resume with no work experience and yet you're putting down A work experience section that includes multiple jobs.
Think of it as more of a general "Experience" section, and not so much about "Work." It could include after school programs, volunteering, church involvement, etc. I hope that helps!
I have no accomplishments or experience.😔🤦🏾♂️🙏🏾
Can't think of a better place to start! But in all seriousness, that's when you reach out to your network of family and friends and try to get a job that way. It's the way a lot of us got our first job.
OK, thanks for the reply.👍🏾
Yes so obviously it not idea to incorporate an unrelated job experience… For instance switching from one completely different job to another
very helpful video. don't just download. Donate too🙂 fyi.. I am a normal viewer like you. not associated with xampilo. I will send you my resume review by end of this week.
Thank you so much for your donation! I'm glad you found the site useful. I'd be happy to review your resume for you as well.
You name the video how to make a resume with no experice and then proceed to add work experience in the resume hmm
Imagine being an adult and having no job experience so you look this up thinking you have Knowledge when you fully never had potential in an actual job to get experience. Now you’re trying to get hired on lies and don't know what to expect when get asked a question from the hiring manager. Y’all should have gone to school and shouldn’t throw away your life like that.🤦♂️
IF YOU SAY NO JOB EXPERIENCE WHY WOULD YOU ADD JOB TITLE, I HAD NO JOB EXPERIENCE THAT`S WHY I CLICKED
The experience section is for any odd jobs, summer internships, volunteer work, or after school programs.
You explain everything and nothing . Sorry dude ill put u in mute and I still will get what your doing. Keep that in mind
