<p>Hey, I will be a freshman in college and am making a resume to apply to jobs. While I don't have any previous work experience, I do have volunteer experience in tutoring, research assistant positions, hospital work. Would it be okay if I listed these under "Experience" or would I have to make it clear that these were unpaid jobs?</p>
<p>I suggest having a heading that makes it clear, such as “Volunteer Experience” or “Research Experience” or “Activities/Other Experience.” If you had a paying job I would separate it under a separate heading titled “Employment” or “Work Experience.”</p>
<p>ok thanks!</p>
<p>You could visit the website for your college career counseling office—or the office itself…to see what they recommend about treating those positions, and about format and other protocols.</p>
<p>If possible, include some of the skills you’ve learned on those experiences.</p>
