College student resume — templates that work without fake experience
High school and university resumes: education first, projects and internships as proof.
A college student resume leads with education, relevant coursework, and projects — not a padded work history. High school resume rules are similar: clubs, volunteering, part-time jobs, and academic awards count when you frame outcomes.
Pick the Fresh Graduate / early career track in DocuResume so section order and tone match intern and grad-program readers.
What to include
Degree, expected graduation, GPA only if strong (3.5+ or employer asks). Projects with links: repos, case studies, design portfolios. Internships and research assistant roles get full bullet treatment with verbs and metrics.
Skills: tools you have used in class or projects — not every language you've touched once.
Length and format
One page until you have substantial internships or publications. Use a clean template — no headshot unless applying in markets that expect ID photos (Japan, China tracks in the composer).
