Building a Strong Resume with Limited Experience

A professional entry-level resume does not need to rely only on paid employment.

Your resume writer may draw on experience gained through:

• School assignments and group projects

• University or TAFE projects

• Work experience placements

• Internships

• Volunteering

• Sporting teams

• Student leadership

• Clubs and community groups

• Casual or part-time work

• Family business assistance

• Fundraising activities

• Personal projects

• Online learning

• Short courses and certificates

These experiences can demonstrate qualities such as reliability, teamwork, communication, initiative, organisation and willingness to learn.

Highlighting Transferable Skills

Employers recruiting for entry-level positions often understand that candidates may not have extensive work experience.

They may instead look for evidence of:

• Reliability and punctuality

• Communication skills

• Customer service

• Teamwork

• Willingness to learn

• Time management

• Organisation

• Attention to detail

• Initiative

• Problem-solving

• Digital skills

• Safety awareness

• Positive attitude

• Ability to follow instructions

• Flexibility and adaptability

Your resume and cover letter will present these qualities professionally and support them with relevant examples where possible.

Your Entry-Level Cover Letter

The included one-page cover letter will introduce you to prospective employers and explain why you are interested in the opportunity.

It may highlight:

• Your interest in the role or industry

• Your education and relevant training

• Transferable skills

• Work experience, volunteering or placements

• Personal strengths

• Willingness to learn

• Availability

• Why you would be a reliable employee

• How your background relates to the position

The cover letter can be prepared for a specific advertised role or written as a strong general document.

A general cover letter should be adjusted for each application. This may include changing the employer name, position title and examples so the letter is relevant to the role.

Tailored to Your Target Jobs

Your documents can be prepared as a general entry-level application package or tailored towards a particular position or industry.

Providing a job advertisement or position description allows your writer to identify the skills, language and keywords most relevant to the opportunity.

This can be particularly useful when applying for:

• Retail assistant positions

• Customer service roles

• Administration jobs

• Reception positions

• Hospitality work

• Warehouse and logistics roles

• Apprenticeships

• Traineeships

• Graduate programs

• Internships

• Healthcare support roles

• Community services positions

• Junior office roles

• Entry-level government jobs

Your documents will remain accurate and will not contain exaggerated or unsupported claims.

Resumes and Cover Letters for School Leavers

Leaving school and applying for your first job can feel difficult when you do not have a long employment history.

Your resume may include:

• Subjects studied

• School achievements

• Leadership responsibilities

• Sporting participation

• Clubs and extracurricular activities

• Work experience

• Volunteer activities

• Awards and certificates

• Casual employment

• Community involvement

• Technology skills

• Availability

Your cover letter will introduce you to employers and explain how these experiences demonstrate your readiness to work.

Support for Students and Graduates

Students and graduates may have valuable experience that is not clearly presented in an older or self-written resume.

Your documents may include:

• Degree, diploma or certificate details

• Relevant subjects or units

• Academic projects

• Placements and internships

• Research experience

• Group assignments

• Presentations

• Technical skills

• Volunteer experience

• Student associations

• Leadership activities

• Awards and academic achievements

The content will be tailored towards your target roles and level of experience.

ATS-Friendly Resume Formatting

Many employers and recruitment agencies use applicant tracking systems to process online applications.

Your entry-level resume will use:

• Clear section headings

• Logical content structure

• Relevant keywords

• Consistent formatting

• Professional fonts

• Easy-to-read education and employment details

• Straightforward role titles and dates

The resume will be designed to remain readable by recruitment software while also presenting professionally to employers.
