Tips on resume writing for a 17 year-old’s first job? at Subway, we hope?
Thanks
Jobs like fast food worker don’t normally require resumes, though having one may make your son stand out among the applicants.
I’d use this format:
Job Objective: (and say, to work at Subway or to work in a fast food establishment or whatever)
Education: (put the name of his school, and years attended so far. You can put that he’s currenlty a junior or whatever. If he has taken any classes that would be relevant to the job, such as food preparation, accounting, etc., list them.)
Experience: (Since this is his first job, there won’t be previous jobs, but has he done any kind of work? Odd jobs, volunteer work, even personal projects that show skills needed for Subway. Don’t forget people skills, so any group projects that show teamwork or fundraising from the public…)
Achievements: Add this section if your son has won any awards or honorable mentions for anything.
Keep the resume to one page, wide margins, readable font size, lots of whitespace. Make sure everything is spelled and punctuated correctly.

You do not need a resume, you need to go there and fill in an application
