When you are a student or have just finished school or a course, things seem a bit uncertain where employment is concerned. There isn’t much experience in hand that you can brag about and confidence is not a great friend.
Writing a cosmetology student resume at this point may seem futile – after all, what can you possibly write when you have had no experience in the Cosmetology field?
The good news is that resumes are not all about the experience. Someone who has worked in a particular industry for many years will of course be expected to fill his or her resume with experience.
However, someone who has just finished training or has just graduated from high school will only be expected to provide information about his or her skills. Fair enough? Right!
For the format and the language, you can use the following resume sample for a cosmetology student:
