Create Your Entry-Level Job Resume
First things first—you're going to need a resume to apply for a job. Never made one before? We've put together resume-writing tips especially for graduates. You may want to look at our general resume advice and example resumes as well. If you see a sample you particularly like, use it as a template and plug in your education, work, volunteer, and extracurricular activities. All great resumes need great cover letters, and this is especially true for entry-level jobs. We've got you covered there too. Read about the things an entry-level applicant must include in a cover letter.
Interviewing for an Entry-Level Job
Job interviews are intimidating, even for experienced job applicants. But don't worry—no one is expecting you to rattle off a formal speech about why you're the best applicant for the job. Instead, interviewers want you to know some basics about the company and the role, be able to discuss your previous experience or studies, have confidence, and, most of all, be yourself.
One of the best ways to calm your fears is to know what questions to expect and the best way to answer them. We also put together a guide for employers interviewing entry-level candidates. To give you even more insight into what your interviewer might be thinking, take a look.
How Much Do Entry-Level Jobs Pay?
That's a lot like asking, "What does food taste like?" It depends on what you're eating—or, doing. To get a rough estimate, enter the type of job you're seeking and your location into Monster's Salary Tools. The page also suggests skills to improve your value to an employer and what job titles you might want to pursue next to advance in your career.
Want to Learn More About a Company You're Interested In?
There are two reasons to research an employer before applying for a job. First, you want to make sure the company is a great fit for you. (Think vegetarian not realizing they're interviewing at a meat-packing company.) Second, you want to do your homework to let the employer know that you're really interested in the opportunity. Use Monster's Company Profile tool to find things like:
- General company information, including what they do or manufacture.
- Photos or videos that show what the company culture is like.
- Locations, headquarters, and number of employees.
