Okay I am totally new to this of getting a job.

I have a few questions and is in need of help.

Do anyone know any sites that have example for resumes or any good ideas for me to put in mines?

I also have a question is it okay if I have a different resume for different jobs or is it permanent?

Resumes should be short, but filled with all the necessary info. In my marketing class, we had to do our own resumes. These are some things you can include. Depending on the type of job you're applying for, you can leave out a lot of stuff. Especially if it's your first job and it's minimum wage, you're don't really have to be highly qualified.

1. Goals - current, short term and/or long term.
2. Education - current school, years attended, some impressive/relevant classes to the job you're applying for. Put these in 3 separate columns.
3. Work experience - Last 3 jobs or volunteer services you've done. Include address, contact info and employers in 1 column, dates worked in a second column, and duties in a third.
4. (optional) Skills you have that would be relevant to the job you're applying for.
5. (optional) Clubs and activities you're involved inor hobbies and interests.
6. (optional) Volunteer work
7. (optional) Awards you've received.
8. Say "References available upon request" at the bottom.*

*Always include 3 references on a separate sheet of paper. References are people the employer can contact to ask about your character, work ethic, etc. You have to ask these people beforehand if they can be your references though. Include their name, address, and contact information on the separate piece of paper.

Good luck with the job!
