New Graduate Resume Template

The New Graduate template is structured to highlight educational accomplishments, technical course projects, and early internships, making it easy to present a compelling case with limited work history.

The resume above uses illustrative sample content. Replace every name, employer, date, metric, and link with details you can verify before sending an application.

Who should use this template

This template is best for university students, recent graduates, bootcamp alumni, and career transitioners who need to emphasize academic qualifications and hands-on projects.

How to tailor this template

Choose coursework and projects that answer the requirements of the role instead of copying your entire transcript. Explain the problem, your contribution, and a demonstrable result for each project. Put internships or relevant part-time work above unrelated experience, and use the summary to connect your previous training to the job you are pursuing.
