Also, try using the Help button in MSWord and type in Resume, it'll give you several examples.

Like you ignored the teachers in school? Here's a word you need to learn: "fired". It's what will happen when your employers learn you don't have basic skills.

Try to talk to someone who looks at resumes for a living. We look at a lot of ####ty resumes; personality and the ability to think on your feet can cover some of your shortcomings.

One thing you fail to realize is that we have jobs. You don't. So laugh all you want as you send out your sloppy resume and wait for an interview that'll never happen.

And a lot of us hire entry level people. What are the chances you'll be offering this kid a job?

Ok yes most people here on this forum have jobs I don't. Yes my resume sucks I am fixing it BEFORE I send it to jobs. While in high school I did not work I concentrated on my school work otherwise I would my so tired/exhausted that I would not be able to focus. I also don't go on the computer all that much so my typing skills are not where my writing is. Everyone isn't PERFECT, Oh and i don't see YOU trying to help fix my resume.

Are you paying me to fix your resume?

And if you had concentrated on your school work as you describe, you wouldn't have made these very minor - yet significant - mistakes. These mistakes aren't major mistakes, they are fundamental to the English language. That you made them makes us think that, perhaps, you didn't do all the concentration in school that you claim you did.
