So you need to start looking for a job, but haven’t got much to put on your resume. You could be a new job seeker, just dipping your toe into the waters for the first time. What do you put on your resume? What is good information and what is just a waste of space?

Or you could be a mature age job seeker who is changing careers or jobs for the first time in a long time. You may have valuable experience at your last job spanning 5, 10 or even longer.

We’ll give you ideas and techniques that you can use to best overcome these challenges. When reading through this post, just ask yourself if these can apply to your situation. With that being said: enjoy!
