Lakeview Hub » Build a Resume That Gets You Noticed

Many people don’t have a resume, or their resume is outdated. That can stop you from getting interviews. But don’t worry — you don’t need to be a writer or computer expert to make a great resume. The Resume Builder on Jobs First Durham (JFD) makes it easy.

What is the Resume Builder?

This tool helps you create a resume step-by-step. You don’t need a template, and you don’t have to worry about formatting. Just answer simple questions, and the tool does the rest.

With the Resume Builder, you can:

Add your name, phone number, and email address
Choose a job title and write a short summary about yourself
List your work experience (even if it’s volunteer or unpaid work)
Add your skills — either by typing or choosing from suggestions
Include education, courses, and any special training you’ve done
Pick from 9 professional-looking styles
Download or print your resume when you’re done

Why This Tool Helps You

Your resume is often the first thing an employer sees. A good one can help you get interviews, even if you don’t have lots of work history.

Makes your experience look professional
Shows off your strengths and skills
Works on your phone or computer
Saves time and builds confidence

If you need help building your resume, drop in to the Lakeview Hub every Wednesday between 10 and 3. We’ll walk you through each step and help you print a copy.
