coming from one of those "born in mid 2000s and is now suddenly an adult, making everyone feel old," people, do you have any resources to learn how to bullshit your way through getting a job with zero experience. cause i cant even put like "babysitting" or anything since covid prevented literally any teenage-typical jobs and i kinda dont know what to put on a resume beyond the university im currently attending and the high school i graduated from. and they still dont teach you this in school even though we've complained for years 😭

Okay my chilluns, listen up. This is how to bullshit your way into a basic 1-page resume even if you think you have absolutely dum-dum-diddlysquat to put on it. I completely feel you, as it's hard as hell to get a job even in the ordinary course of things, and especially when everything seems to want 10 years of experience and a bachelor's degree (and still pays like shit). But you gotta be persistent anyway. So here follows the step-by-step guide of How To Resume:

Open a new Word (or other word-processing software of your choice) document.

Pick a nice, professional-looking font (for the love of God, no Comic Sans). Times New Roman is fine; you don't have to overthink it. My own CV is currently in Perpetua, because it's a nice serif that looks crisp and a little different, but it is still clean and readable. Garamond or Cambria or other starter typefaces are fine too. Make sure it is the right size, usually around 12pt.

Put your full name at the top, centered, in BOLD CAPITALS. Increase the typeface size a few more points on this, to make it stand out and to make it take up space.

Underneath this, in regular-sized text, put your contact information: mailing address if you're comfortable sharing it, or if not, at least your phone number and email address. Use a school email if you have it, and not some weird/in-jokey personal email.

Start a new paragraph. In a slightly smaller font (italic if you want to make it look classy) write a few words about yourself. This should be something like I am a [Major] student at [University] looking for a part-time, entry-level position in [sales, retail, office, etc]. A [year] graduate of [High School] in [City, State], I am [prompt, reliable, detail-oriented, mature, friendly, etc] and a hard worker who is eager to gain experience and positively contribute to your business.

Start a new paragraph. Change the alignment from Center to Left. Create a new heading in bold underline labeled Education.

Under this, fill in your education (college first, followed by high school). Include the institution name, city, and state, the year you graduated or expect to graduate, any honors or awards, any extracurriculars, any grade-point averages if they're good (i.e. 3.0 and above), and your expected major in college.

Start a new paragraph. Create another heading: Experience.

This is where you put absolutely anything you can think of (in chronological order, most recent first and counting backward). Did you volunteer for something ever in your life? Put it down! (Title of work, dates, location, brief description of work). Did you do yard work for someone for a weekend? Put it down! Were you (or are you) part of a student club or organization in high school or university? Have you organized or taken part in any local initiatives in your community or neighborhood? Put it down! Basically, absolutely any kind of work, paid or unpaid, that might be relevant, regardless of how long it was or when it took place.

Under that, put the new heading/paragraph Skills and Interests.

Have you worked with Microsoft Word, Outlook, PowerPoint, Adobe, Photoshop? Put it down! People love that shit! Do you use social media and/or know how to work it better than the average grandma? Put 'er down! You get the idea. Think of anything in your daily life that can be put in Job Language and then see if you can do that. You are in university; do you have any projects, papers, or other things that you're proud of? Have you successfully managed a (gasp) group project? Do you make any kind of art? Are you a registered voter who has taken part in civic/political organizations, drives, or events? (If not, REGISTER TO VOTE! This is your angry grandmother speaking). All of that can go down. Even if it's not job experience per se, it's life experience and shows that you are someone who is engaged with the world and working to gain more.

Last paragraph and heading: References. Ask a few trusted adults who know you well and aren't related to you, such as a favorite high school teacher or a university faculty member/degree advisor, if they'd be willing to serve as referees. Put down their full names, titles/place of work, email addresses, and phone numbers.

Voila! You have a full page resume, probably even a little more if you're lucky. Proofread, make sure the spacing is even and the alignment is right, it doesn't look weird, the text is a consistent size, it's all the same color, there are no glaring typos or grammatical errors, etc. etc. Save it as a PDF.

Boom. Done. You are now a Job Hunting Maestro.

If you get an interview, you don't need to pretend that you have tons of experience or that you're something you're not, but you can present what you ARE in a positive light anyway. Don't apologize for yourself or play yourself down pre-emptively; be confident about yourself and what you can offer. You're a college kid looking for your first part-time job, COVID prevented you from a lot of normal teenage work experience, you're willing to work hard and learn new things. Here's your resume. What would be a good time to talk again.

Good luck! I believe in you.

ROUND 1 - RED GROUP

Propaganda under the cut.

Cambria: "Simple but refined, stylish and understated, evergreen, timeless, it's the little black dress, the classic tux, the cool cousin you always want to hang out with of the serif family. Your profs like it, it looks good whenever you use it, the italics are gorgeous, it has a wonderfully full set of characters, what! can't! Cambria! do! Also the Greek letters slap so hard, it is the only serif font I use for Greek typing."

Back Issues: "It's the font in comics that is usually done by letterers, now able to be used as a font by random shmucks like yourself!"

I have a vague memory of someone asking me for this bio code at one point, and since I'm redoing my bios and won't be using this anymore myself, here it is as free-use for everyone <3

Graphics are from Osiem's gorgeous bio resources

yes you can edit it as much as you like

no I don't need to be credited for the coding or anything, it's fine ^^

Coding can be found under the cut! It works both with or without vistas ^^

Common serif fonts: Times New Roman, Baskerville, Garamond, Goudy Old Style, Georgia, Didot, Cambria. There are also slab serifs like Rockwell, American Typewriter and Courier.

Common sans serif fonts: Arial, Helvetica, Franklin Gothic, Avenir, Verdana, Trebuchet MS, Futura, Gill Sans, Comic Sans, Calibri.

I read this article to find out what classed as serifs or sans serifs - there are also several subcategories of both but perhaps that's a poll for another day, lol

If you pick the 'something else' option, please feel free to elaborate in the tags or comments, I'm curious!

WHAT A JOURNEY THIS WAS! I completed this fic as a gift for @runawaymarbles during Renegade's Bound Fic Exchange, and it was such a fun one to design! I went for a comic book inspired theme, using bright, saturated colors; comic book yellow (which is a real shade!), bright blues, and rich reds (it came out a little more orange, but that's easier on the eyes anyway xD).

The dust jacket was new territory for me, but after crowd-sourcing assistance from the Renegade group, I was finally able to print it at the Octavia Lab! It was an awesome meetup, and a fantastic resource for us (the dust jacket printing was FREE, no $40 Staples trip needed!)

This whole project was a blast, and I was able to gift the author a copy as well. Thank you for all the fun!
