Hello, im new to the work at home deal, as well as resumes ><. I've never had to make one before... especially for work at home things. I have no previous experience in the field. Any job i've worked has been a hired on the spot type thing after a conversation. Could anyone direct me to a guide? i did a quick search in the search option and didn't notice anything, sorry if i missed it.


short version: anyone know of a decent walkthrough for making a resume? will be my first one.

thank you! im looking them up now. seems a bit strange to me to try to make a resume when i have no experience. I don't want to exactly put down old construction company's like Sharq for an internet job.

The important thing is not "where" your worked previous but what you did and what skills you have.

If you are applying to a data entry job and you had to do data entry and/or typing at a previous job that that counts.

If you have no "work" experience doing a task then you'll just need to make it clear why you feel capable and qualified to do the job you applying for or why you feel you can learn it in a reasonable amount of time. Just be honest, organized, and what ever you do don't make any typos.
