If you\u2019re worried that class projects or volunteer work \u201cdon\u2019t count\u201d as real experience- that worry is common, but it\u2019s not accurate.

According to Jobscan\u2019s ongoing Fortune 500 ATS research, over 98% of Fortune 500 companies use an applicant tracking system to manage the volume of digital applications they receive, converting unstructured resumes into a searchable database (Jobscan, 2026).

Coursework, projects, volunteering, and part-time work are all legitimate evidence of the skills a first job actually requires: showing up, following through, and working with other people.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Building This With JustCV<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-163\" src=\"https:\/\/justcv.io\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Building-This-With-JustCV.webp\" alt=\"Building This With JustCV\" width=\"820\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/justcv.io\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Building-This-With-JustCV.webp 820w, https:\/\/justcv.io\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Building-This-With-JustCV-300x168.webp 300w, https:\/\/justcv.io\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Building-This-With-JustCV-768x431.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every section and annotation above works as a manual template , you can build it in any document editor.

Recruiters read many similar resumes, and generic phrasing is easy to spot. Swap in your own activities, numbers, and tools so the content genuinely reflects your experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>What should my first resume include?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A summary, education (with relevant coursework), any work or internship experience, a projects\/activities section, and a skills list. If you don\u2019t have paid work experience yet, projects, volunteering, and coursework carry more weight than they would on an experienced professional\u2019s resume.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How long should a first job resume be?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One page. At this stage in your career, you\u2019re unlikely to have enough relevant content to justify a second page, and a tightly written single page is easier for both recruiters and ATS software to scan.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Do internships and volunteering count as real experience on a resume?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes. Structured activity that shows responsibility and follow-through\u00a0 an internship, a volunteer role, a class project with a team\u00a0 is legitimate resume content, whether or not it was paid.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What\u2019s the difference between a resume and a CV for a first job?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It depends on where you\u2019re applying. In India, \u201cresume\u201d and \u201cCV\u201d are often used interchangeably for the same one- to two-page document. In the US and Canada, \u201cresume\u201d is the standard term for most jobs, while \u201cCV\u201d usually means a longer, academic-style document. In the UK and much of Europe, \u201cCV\u201d is the common term even for a standard job application. For a first job, the format in this guide works under either name\u00a0 check the specific employer\u2019s wording if you\u2019re unsure.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How do I make my first resume ATS-friendly?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Use a single-column layout, standard section headings, and export as a real PDF with a selectable text layer rather than an image. Avoid tables and text boxes for core content, and keep contact details in the main body of the document.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Should I include a photo on my first resume?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This depends on your country\u2019s hiring norms\u00a0 photos are common on resumes in some markets and discouraged (or seen as a bias risk) in others, including much of the US, UK, Canada, and Australia. Check the local convention for the market you\u2019re applying in before adding one.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A first job resume example works when it shows you the structure, not just the words.
