<prompt> Human: I finished college about a year ago with a 3.4 gpa and a ba in psychology. I wasnt really academically active and didnt participate in any research labs or internships. I work a minimum wage job in nyc, and im actively looking for any internships that require administrativehr work.Im currently living at home, and the only bills i have are car insurance, gas, and phone bill. Thankfully i have no debt. But im really struggling to even land an interview with the various internship gigs ive applied for on indeed. Right now im studying for the GRES and will be applying to a masters program in iopsych this coming fall. Will take any recommendations as to what I should do. Most of my friends already have decent salaries and it feels like im stuck at a dead end jobAssistant: After a year and no luck Id be questioning my application process. How many iterations of your resumé have you been through? Do you tweak it to pass the specifics of the screening software? Do you customize your cover letter to the company your applying to? At what point in the process are you hitting a wall? Phone screens or in persons? Are you presenting yourself well? Planned out questions and answers to expected questions? Following up outside of the indeed and monster front doors? What professionals have you spoken to? It took me a while and a lot of refinement to start getting call backs, some more to start getting in persons. The economy is booming and if your presenting yourself correctly theres room for you and your current degree. Human: Thank you for your response. I actually JUST started actively looking for internships as i recently moved back to nyc about 4 months ago. My resume is pretty lackluster and is mostly filled with classes i got as in as-well as minimum wage experiences. Like i mentioned before, I dont have anything marketable except my grades. I havent spoken to any professionals, as I honestly do not know of any. Ive been trying to read up about peoples experiences and attempt to gain insight from them as i know im not the only one going through these circumstances How did you manage to get callbacks outside of the indeed and monster? Ive sent out my resume to a couple of temp agencies and waiting to hear back from them  <response>: Your grades arent marketable, literally no one cares -- you might even take the GPA off of your resume since its only a 3.50 this is borderline, so it depends on what your industry wants.So stalking out your old docdroid resume, heres what I have to offer quickly.The fact you have A- and A grades next to your classes not only doesnt impress me but it tells me youre clueless about what the work world cares about... which isnt good. Yank off the grades and make the classes into a paragraph list i.e. each class doesnt get its own line.Even if youve done only low-level jobs, list the latestbest one youve done. Thats better than listing grades. Try to pick out like 1-2 ways you were standout i.e. got any awards, employee of month, etc. and list like 1-2 responsibilities. Of course everyone knows a cashiercustomer service guy is just that, which is why you are not going overboard talking about it hence the 1-2 for each, but its still work which school. It also shows you can work without direct supervision which beats just saying it.Trim your skills down to a smaller list, this is painful because you dont have much, but a little crap is better than a lot of crap. Get rid of junk like ability to maintain professional discretion -- this is a protip I was given by someone else on my own first resume draft: read the wikipedia definition of weasel words and see if you are using them.You talk your talk about strong understanding of evolutionary psychology and its application in modern research analytics but your crappy GPA, school, no experience actually shows again me the opposite. If you even want to dare put this phrase down, make a project. It doesnt have to be crazy, just use something you learned in class, apply it to some analytics, and write a shortmedium length blog post. Link to it. Now youve actually backed up this statement.Finally if youre still lacking on space your answer is not to fill in with the crap that I said to remove, but rather, put a summaryobjective statement on top. This is something I actually discourage, but if you dont have much, its a good space filler.Summary This comes first - remove the stuff that I said to remove, because those are all resume-killers. Summary statement first -- only if you still arent at a full page. Education trimmed to school GPA paragraph-formatted list of classes. One job even if low-level retailetc.. If it is low-level, max 2 sentences describing your job duties, max another 2 sentences about how you distinguished yourself any recognition. Shorter list of skills -- and only the useful ones. Maybe an interesting fact about yourself, if youve been to Russia or a lot of countries maybe just say that.Done and there you have a much better start point. Hit up a career advice sub for more.Edit Oh, forgot to mention -- like said above if you have class projects that were particularly good, you can list those with your education. Or in a Projects section, which can also contain personal projects such as the one I suggested.
