After middle school, you would start thinking about what your future would entail. Your future consists of getting a job, so now is the time to start to have a working experience. When getting a job, you would need a resume so that the person who is thinking of hiring you can see why you deserve the job that you are applying for.
A resume should include what your education level is, your skills, your work experience, any accomplishments, education, anything you do for your free time, etc. You can make your own design or have one provided for you, a template. For the Francisco Media Staff, we used templates that were on Google Docs, we’re pretty sure you guys are familiar with that. So first, to get the templates you go to the front/home page. There should be “Start a new document” that is in dark gray. Then look for Template Gallery, you should be able to see it. When “Template Gallery” is pressed, there should be many templates including resume. There are letters, work, sales, etc. that are also really helpful. Look for resume and you should see 5 different designs that look different, but they all have the same idea. The designs that are listed are Coral, Swiss, Serif, Modern Writer, and Spearmint. I, Karen, used Serif to make my resume. I, Zachary, used Swiss. After you’ve chosen your template, you need to start thinking about what to put on the resume. Such as, what experience, skills, etc do you have? Experiences to put can be if you play sport(s), if you volunteer, etc. Experiences we could put on our resume can be being a Francisco Media Staff and a Francisco Track Runner. You can add your own categories too. This is optional but you can make an “About Me” section where you put in your hobbies, what you like, etc. For skills, you can put what you are good at. If you are good at math, you can add that in. If you took musical instrument classes, put that down too! There are many other things you can put on it, think about it! There should be a section already listed on the template which is languages. If you can speak a language, add that into your resume. In Francisco Middle School, they give you awards or certificates if you are in a sport, have a 4.0 GPA, etc. Remember to add your education. Where did you go for elementary school, kindergarten, middle school? We know that many people in this school attend chinese school. You can add that too. https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/?tgif=c&ftv=1 Here is the link to the templates on Google Docs. Remember to update your information every time you want to get another job, so that you can add new information. It is helpful to prepare yourself around this time so that you can get ahead of competition. Hopefully this helps you and encourages to do make a resume.
