How to build a Minor Resume


Part of getting any job is first proving that you're qualified. In these parts we do it with the resume. But How does a Minor have a resume? You haven't been to college and you haven't had a real job.

But you probably have these things you can put on your resume:

1. References. Shirley you know An adult that would recommend you. Approach these people and ask them if you can use them as a reference. Or collect quotes about your work, for instance, "Mr. Money Minor is helpful and polite."

2. Previous experience. Just because someone doesn't hire you to do this job doesn't mean you don't have any experience. Do you have a photo or a complete project that you could show of previous work? There is nothing wrong with adding images to your resume.

3. Skills. Brainstorm a list of things you know how to do that  relate to the job you want to get.

Here is something fun! Have you heard of DIY.org? This is a site where you practice skills and earn badges. Here is a clip from their site.
