My DIY resume template always get me an interview🥰

Here’s the resume template I created & used to land my first full-time job as a Marketing Manager in the supplement industry (and tons of other interviews!).

🔹 What I changed: I keep the layout super clean and easy to scan. I use bullet points to highlight results, list only the most relevant certifications, and tailor my skills to the exact job description.

It’s really important to change your resume to match each job you are applying for. Slight word changing go a long way!

🔹 Design tips: I used Canva to build this layout from scratch and made sure to keep the left column clean but informative (contact info, education, certifications), and the right column focused on real experience.

Keep your resume simple & easy to follow!!

🔹 Bonus: I deleted my personal info here, but adding a link to your LinkedIn in the actual resume really helped showcase my portfolio and activity.

Recruiters can easily find more info this way, if they want to!

If you’re applying for your first full-time role or pivoting industries, this kind of structured format can make your experience stand out, even if you’re just getting started.

Try this layout if you want compliments on your resume 🤗

I’ve been debating sharing this with people so lmk if you would like the template!
