What an entry-level Administrative Assistant resume needs

One page, one column and standard headings, so an applicant tracking system reads it cleanly. A short summary that names the Administrative Assistant role. Experience, internships, campus jobs or projects written as bullets that start with a verb and end with a result and a number. A skills section that uses the exact words in the job posts you're applying to. This week's posts most often ask for Excel, and the example covers them.

No experience yet?

Use projects, coursework, clubs, volunteering and part-time jobs. Describe each the way you'd describe a job: what you did, which tools you used, and what happened because of it. Any honest number helps: how many people, items, hours, dollars or percent.

Frequently asked questions

What should an entry-level Administrative Assistant resume include?

Contact details, a short summary naming the role, experience or projects in bullet form, a skills section, and education. Keep it to one page. Based on this week's job posts, skills like Excel are worth listing if you have them.

How do I write a Administrative Assistant resume with no experience?

Lead with education and projects, then add any part-time, campus or volunteer work. Each bullet should show an action, a tool and a result, ideally with a number.
