Every name, employer and institution in this sample is invented. In the builder it is laid out on one A4 page; replace each line with your own facts.
Why it is written this way
- The headline says in six words what she is and what she can do, so a recruiter knows the fit before reading further.
- The objective names real work done (vouchers, GST data) instead of adjectives such as "hardworking".
- The internship is written like a job: action word first, then a number wherever one exists.
- Skills are grouped and specific. "Excel (VLOOKUP, pivot tables)" can be tested in an interview and tells the employer the level.
- The treasurer role is included because it is about handling money, which is relevant. A dance prize would not be.
What to change for yourself
- Replace the internship with whatever practical exposure you have: helping in a family shop's accounts, a part-time billing job, or a longer course project.
- If your marks are modest, give the degree and year and leave the score out unless the advertisement asks for it.
- List only software you have actually used. You will be asked to show it.
- If you have cleared any professional examination stage, put it at the top of Education.
What to avoid
- Writing "Tally" with no detail. Say what you did in it.
- Listing every subject of B.Com. The employer knows the syllabus.
- Adding a long declaration, father's name and date of birth by habit. See what is needed on the personal details page.
Questions people ask
I have no internship. What do I write?
Use a college project, a certificate course with practical work, or unpaid help in a relative's business, described honestly with what you actually did.
Should a B.Com fresher's resume be one page?
Yes. With no job history, one page is enough and is easier for a recruiter to read.
