I made a resume for college and added some to it. It really needs to fill up with more internships related to my major and something other than my high school activities. Also studying abroad would look great on my resume. I feel like if I turned in my resume for an internship right now though, they'd laugh in my face. It is not very good and isn't filled with substantial information and activities that would benefit the job. I'm hoping that everyone elses resume as of right now is like mine and I'm not already behind on getting more job experience and internships that matter to my major.
