I am 16, I live in Ontario, Canada. I have had several online business ventures, have considerable experience in customer satisfaction and solving problems. I have strong computer and communication skills. I don?t have much experience working under someone, just lawn cutting for a company that I can?t get a reference from. All of that is on my resume.
On the rare occasion that I get an interview, I always show up in business clothing such as dress pants, shined leather shoes, dress shirt and tie. It seems the harder I try, the less likely it is for me to get a job.
I would start a full time summer business but I am lacking capital. I don?t have anyone that can lend me money and can?t get a loan.
I just got turned down today for another job that I had an interview for on wednesday. I watch all of my friends around me getting jobs from doing next to nothing. I try so hard but no one will cut me some slack. I can?t even get a job at a damn grocery store for crying out loud.
I think it has to be something wrong with my resume. Can you please critique it and make annotations?
Here is a copy of my resume:
