He is a young high school grad so I would not be surprised to see a resume like this from him. It's when they are adults, have worked, have some type of professional experience, and a college education to add that hand in resumes that are worst than this that have me shaking my head and absolutely dumbfounded.

Go to Google and look for 'sample resumes'. There is a ton of advice and examples of what you should be doing. No one on this forum is going to do your resume for you.

Agreed. You are asking for somebody to perform professional services for you, and that costs money. you wouldn't be able to afford my rates.

You will get advice, but you need to do this on your own. Revise it using the tips you have received here, post an anonymized version, and you will probably get more feedback.

This is a skill that would be good for you to have. Practice it. Solve your own problems, it is a good work habit to develop.

Yeah sorry OP I don't have the time or ambition to help you write your resume "right now before you head to BestBuy". It takes time to make a good resume, even for people your age. If you think you can just throw some new words on it and go then you are in for some struggles. It sounds like you just want someone to do it for you. Not happening here. You need to do your research and rewrite your own resume just like all of us did and continue to do.

It make take a few days off and on of some research and writing but it will be better than if you just change a few words around. Sorry, there's nothing free in life.

Then your resume has to reflect that. How can you bring value to the company?
