Information technology keeps us on our toes.
And if you are an IT technician, looking for a first job, you do not need to worry about getting it. Why?
Because a newbie is a great hire for employers who want an employee who understands new technology. But you will have to write a resume in order to convince the hiring authority to hire you.
Typically, a resume for an IT technician position should border on overflowing with experience. Not yours though. At the entry-level, you can pretty much depend on your skills, and be done with it!
To see how you can write a resume for an IT technician position when you have no experience, have a look at the following sample:
