How to Write a Great Résumé with Little to No Work Experience

If you’re a recent or soon-to-be college grad, you’re probably thinking quite a bit about your next chapter in life. It’s an exciting time with a world of possibilities, and you no doubt want every advantage as you venture out into the job market.

There are a number of different avenues for finding new opportunities, like online job sites (e.g., Indeed, ZipRecruiter), career fairs at your school, LinkedIn, or personal referrals from your network. But no matter how you hear about or apply for a job, you’ll need a professional résumé during the recruitment and/or interview process in most cases.

The Benefits of Having a Mentor and How to Find One

Transitioning from college life to your professional career is an exciting time full of growth and possibility. It can also be a little bit scary (in a good way!). 

You’re making big decisions about where to work and what path to take, developing new professional relationships, and maybe even learning how to be financially independent for the first time.

While it’s important to have an existing support system to lean on — parents, siblings, friends, etc. —  it’s also incredibly valuable to have a mentor who can help you navigate your career and develop professionally.
