D Experience. Even if you have very little work experience, you must include this

section. List paid work, informal and volunteer jobs — anything that helps an employer see your experience. List job titles, name and address of the employers, dates you worked for them, and job responsibilities.

E Skills. List in bullet points the skills you have which are relevant to the position and make you qualified to do the job you are applying for. If you are fluent in another language or have advanced tech skills, list them! PRODUCT PREVIEW F References.

Maintain a line up of quality, articulate, trustworthy, and knowledgeable people who can vouch for your skills, experience, and integrity. Professors, teachers, coaches, former job supervisors, volunteer group leaders, club presidents — are all good choices. No relatives or family members!
