Developing your resume before you start applying for a job will make the process easier and give you confidence when you meet a potential employer. KMHS Media Staff are here to help you compose and format your resume. High school students starting their first resume may be confused by using a template designed for professionals, so try ManeMedia’s Resume Starter for High School Students (more at end of post). Adapt any template to best represent you, by adding or removing section headers; see a list of suggestions below. Keep formatting consistent and have someone assist with proofreading your final copy to make sure that it is error free!
