How to write a saleslady resume without experience
First job? Use the same lines for a school bazaar, an online selling page or a family store, and say where.
What do I put first if I have no store experience?
Put your senior high school diploma first, then any selling you've done. A school bazaar or family store counts, so say where.
Which skills should I pick for a sales assistant resume?
Pick the ones the post asks for. Talking to customers politely and handling cash correctly are good ones to keep near the top.
Should I put my birthday or a photo on it?
Leave your birthday off. Since 2016, Republic Act 10911 has made it unlawful for employers in the Philippines to require your age or birth date while you apply. Leave the photo off too, unless the job post asks for one.
Should I send it as a PDF or a Word file?
PDF, unless the job post asks for Word. A PDF looks the same on every screen. Put your name in the file name, like Lovely-Galang-Resume.pdf.
