Create a Resume & Write a Cover Letter

RESUMES – Resumes are typically required when applying to any job or internship. We recommend using a template to simplify the process. It’s okay if you don’t have a lot of work experience yet! You can still create a resume that makes you stand out. You can include volunteer experiences as well as leadership positions you have had in school clubs, after-school activities, and in your faith community.

COVER LETTER – Some applications will require a cover letter as well. While it should still be professional, this is an opportunity to tell employers why you would be an excellent fit for their internship.
