I would like some help. I’m applying for save on foods, and have never had a job before (other than working for my dad, at his company, so I have had some experience, but I’ve never written a resume).
I’m hoping to keep it down to one page, so if I could have an example of an entry level resume that I could fill in that would be greatly appreciated. I’d also like some additional tips on applying, if you have any. Thank you in advance.

Hello There
Here are some tips for you:
Since you are a fresh graduate or candidate you would need to highlight your future goal first of all I mean write in impresive words what you wanna do and remember not to undermine the organization/instituion you want to join. I mean appreciate its image show you would be an asset to the firm/company through your words like committment, zest hardwork, efficiency under pressurised atmosphere etc etc.
2ndly you would be fresh candidate you would have to highlight your projects if you did any during your studies as you said you worked for your dad, so highlight it describe it but with such a presentation that it may assist you in getting the job. Remember your resume at this stage must be like a magical one attractive it should market you and yourself coz you need to get attention of the employer.
Also highlight any minute detail regarding any achievment in your life any voulantary work any expertise and yes your hobbies please ind that your hobbies should support your personality and your image like in Marketing jobs a person who would say he is social bee adn like to connect and have connections etc or memeber of a social club etc is successful.
In brief start with your objective a rosy picture raise expectations sell yourself in this para get attention of the employer and then breif about your qualification your projects your intrests your hobbies any other information and then refernces. keep it upto 2 pages max

Wish you all the best
I used this resume writing service in my area, this is there website: http://www.resumeworld1.com you should try them, it only cost me $35.00 and I got a great job from this new resume, I never thought about the format that they use but the turn around time was less then 24 hrs. I would have to say it was the best service I have ever used and it was worth every dime. Also they let me pay through Pay Pal.
There are some great resume resources on the web. The best resume helps site is http://www.theresumesource.com. When I was putting my resume together they had the best information, including a list of descriptive words.
Be sure to relate your resume to the job posting or job description. The best way to do that is to use direct verbiage from the posting. I hope this helps! Good luck!
