What an entry-level Civil Engineer resume needs
One page, one column and standard headings, so an applicant tracking system reads it cleanly. A short summary that names the Civil Engineer 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.

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.
