    <title>Aug 1, How does a high school student demonstrate job skills in their resume?</title>
    <link>http://www.how-to-write-a-resume-that-works.com/free-sample-resume.html</link>
    <description>You may have taken classes but not have used the experiences in a job. You can still put them down in the skills section of your resume. 

Then when you get to the interview they may ask questions to explore  these claims you have made in your resume. For example, if they ask you about the &#39;personal organisation skills&#39; on your resume, you can say that as a matter of habit, you keep a to do list with target finish dates on, and that every night before you go to bed you look to see what you have achieved and to determine your actions for the next day.

See example Key Capabilities  or Skills Profile</description>

    <title>Jul 31, Action Words</title>
    <link>http://www.how-to-write-a-resume-that-works.com/free-resume-writer.html</link>
    <description>Always avoid using &quot;responsible for&quot; as a description of what you did in a job. Instead use strong action words that display your real achievements. For example, I have been asked &quot;How would you put the responsibilities of a hostess at a resturant into a resume?&quot;

My reply is don&#39;t say&lt;br&gt;
- Responsible for taking customer orders

But instead perhaps say&lt;br&gt;
- Listened to customer preferences and recommended appropriate menu items to customers&lt;br&gt;
- Recorded customer orders promptly with accuracy and speed&lt;br&gt;</description>

    <description>The most important part of applying for a college scholarship is not so much the resume but more the cover letter that goes with it.
But whereever you put it, it is closely related to your career objectives that you might put on a resume. What the employer or college is looking for is how you and them and society will benefit from you doing the course you are applying for. This should be a page at least to do it justice.</description>

And the best answer is that I would convert my resume to plain text format and put it in the body of my email. This way it&#39;s very clear. At the Same time I would offer to provide it in Word or any other format required by the employer.
