College Student secures her dream internship at a Startup with our Resume

Client Introduction

Meet Aashna Bansal, a driven BBA student with a passion for project management. Despite her dedication and enthusiasm, Aashna was struggling to secure an internship in her desired field. Her resume was not optimized, and she didn’t know how to effectively highlight her education and extracurricular activities.

Aashna faced significant challenges in her internship search. Her resume failed to showcase her project management skills, and she didn’t know how to present her extensive volunteering and extracurricular experience in a way that would impress recruiters. This led to numerous rejections and a growing sense of frustration.

Understanding Aashna's Struggle

To address Aashna’s concerns, we conducted a one-on-one consultation. During this discussion, we discovered that she had a substantial amount of project management experience gained through her volunteering and extracurricular activities. We worked with her to outline and document these experiences comprehensively.

How we made Aashna's Resume

  • Used a Professional ATS-Friendly Format: We adopted a clean, professional layout that was optimized for Applicant Tracking Systems, ensuring her resume would pass initial screenings.
  • Made It Single Page and Keyword Optimized: We condensed her resume to a single page, incorporating relevant keywords for project management to enhance visibility to recruiters.
  • Emphasized Volunteering and Extracurricular Experience: We highlighted her project management skills by focusing on her volunteering and extracurricular activities, tailoring this section to capture the interest of recruiters.
  • Added an Optimized Skills Section: We created a skills section specifically geared towards project management, showcasing her relevant abilities and competencies.
  • Used Achiever-Oriented Tone and Language: By employing a results-driven language, we emphasized Aashna’s proactive and go-getter work ethic, making her achievements stand out.

Her Final Resume

Positive Outcome

Aashna was incredibly satisfied with the resume we crafted for her. She was amazed at how professional and impactful it looked. A few weeks later, Aashna excitedly informed us that she had cracked an interview and secured her dream internship at the startup she had been aiming for.

Conclusion

Aashna’s case underscores the importance of a well-optimized resume in the competitive job market. Her initial resume failed to highlight her project management capabilities and relevant experiences. Through a detailed one-on-one consultation and strategic resume makeover, we helped Aashna present her qualifications effectively, leading to her success in securing a coveted internship. At ResumeGuru, we are committed to transforming resumes to open doors to new opportunities and help our clients achieve their career aspirations.
