# How do I write a good resume as a fresher?



## Answers

### Answer by Ethan Thompson

A fresher’s resume should show potential, since you may not have much experience yet.

- **Keep it to one page**, clean and easy to read.
- **Start with your name, phone, email and LinkedIn**, and a short two-line summary of what you are looking for.
- **Education:** degree, college, year and marks if they are good.
- **Projects:** this is where freshers stand out. Explain what you built, the tools used and the result.
- **Internships and training**, even short ones.
- **Skills:** list specific tools and technologies, not vague words like “hardworking”.
- **Achievements and activities**, such as competitions, certifications or leadership roles.

Tailor the resume for each job, use action words like “built”, “led” and “improved”, and check for spelling mistakes carefully. Recruiters often spend less than a minute on the first look.
