Teen job-seekers do not need to have a resume when job-hunting, but if you want to stand out from the crowd, then developing your resume will do so.

What is a resume? It's a document that tells prospective employers all about you -- and why you would make a great employee -- so you want to focus it on your strengths and accomplishments, as well as your education and work experiences. It is designed to help get your foot in the door, to help you get the job interview.

But maybe you already know all that. Still, when writing a resume, there is much more than just the content, and even much older job-seekers have problems writing their resumes. (If you do need some help getting started with your resume, use our free Teen Resume Writing Worksheet to take you through all the steps to developing your resume.)
