Frequently asked questions

How long should a student resume be?

One page. Student resumes should focus on education, projects, part-time work and skills. Anything more than one page suggests padding.

Should I include GPA?

Include GPA if it is strong (usually 3.5+ on a 4.0 scale) and you have less than 2 years of experience. Once you have real work experience, GPA becomes optional.

What if I have no work experience at all?

Lead with Education, then Projects, then Skills. Include coursework, volunteer work, academic projects and any freelance or side-project work. These count as relevant evidence.
