<p>My son needs to put together a resume for a summer program he is applying for.</p>
<p>all of the resumes and templates that he has found so far are for adults and he is having a hard time putting his information into that format.</p>
<p>He has only had one job, a handful of ECs, and school subjects. Lots of interests.</p>
<p>does anyone have a link to a good sample high school resume? </p>
<p>We would really appreciate the help!</p>
<p>thanks!</p>
<p>If you email me, or send me your email address, I can send you my son's. We actually have several versions of it, designed for various purposes.</p>
<p>Here is a start of a resume.</p>
<p>In trying to remember what my D used as a resume for applying to summer programs. . .I would think about the following categories.</p>
<p>EDUCATION: School, graduation date, GPA/rank, test scores if available (PSAT/SAT/ACT taken yet?) If you are applying for a science/math summer program, you may want to mention the subjects you are currently taking or have taken in those fields.</p>
<p>EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES: List with important ones at the top. After each description, list any leadership positions and awards. Don't innundate the resume with every ticky-tacky club he's ever been in--more does not mean better. If science and math programs, be sure to list and describe any science and math things he's done, tests he's taken, awards won.</p>
<p>EMPLOYMENT: Put in job here.</p>
<p>COMMUNITY SERVICE: Again, important ones here.</p>
<p>You could add a section about INTERESTS, but it really should be short--a couple of lines at the most.</p>
<p>Good luck. This resume will come in useful when applying for college--get a lot of info down that you'll find relevant when filling out the forms.</p>
<p>My son put together what he called a "one-sheet" which highlighted his academic, extra-curricular, and job/internship involvement. PM or email me and I'd be glad to send you a copy.</p>
