How should I put this experience on my resume?

July 212010

I have some tutoring experience that i’d like to put on my resume. I want to write what I accomplished by it and why it makes me special or whatever… I definitely improved the students grades and motivated them to study harder, be more punctual, responsible, career driven, etc… I’d like someone to help me summarize these points in one nice sentence so I can put it as one of my bullet points on my resume.

Your resume is not the place to describe how being a tutor makes you feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside. Stick to factual information. List your title (tutor), place of work, approximate hours per week, number of students and subject(s) you tutored.

How do you write a resume with no job experience?

July 152010

I’m 16, and i’m having trouble writing a resume, as I have no previous experience other that babysitting, volunteer work, and being the president of a school club. I know I should include those, but how should my resume look? Does anyone have any templates? Or could you just explain it to me?

You have 3 good experiences. NO one expects a 16 years old to have the experience of working in NASA. Your resume will look great if you add your hobbies, interests personal and interpersonal skills.
Also write your name, phone number and email larger than usual :) Use a large font generally

You don’t put it on there as experience. Just put it under interests. Anyone can open an account and trade so it’s nothing special.

In applying financial jobs, Is it okay to put experience of being a stock investor in the resume?

July 42010

Can someone tell me how will I put it in my resume? can someone give me a sample or website that has resume that includes experience of being a stock investor. Please give me some proper answers Thanks…

Of course. How to describe it is up to you. Likely you don’t want to disclose how much money you have, but you should put this
1) personal info
2) career objectives
3) professional experience
4) Education
5) Hobbies or side projects. (I can’t think of a better name for this section at the moment, but this is where you put your investment experience.) Maybe you can call it Personal Portfolio Management.

Suggestions on describing it, indicate which stocks you trade and how frequently, and through was vehicle. I.e. "Included in my portfolio is MSfT, EBAY, etc, which I monitor daily, making trades as appropriate. I had a 13.5% annual increase." Then you can describe which resources you use to stay abreast of the market, such as reading the Economist every day or WSJ.
