Isla Fernandes, Sixth Form Student
Isla Fernandes is a Year 13 student with a Saturday job, a volunteering stint and two positions of responsibility at school, applying for a summer placement in a finance office alongside her university applications. The resume is written for a reader who has never seen a school leaver CV and wants to know what she has actually done.
Why this resume works
- The summary gives the subjects, the predicted grades and the two roles held at school in one paragraph, before any section is read.
- Leadership positions get their own section with a role, a place and dates for each, treated exactly as a job would be.
- Education lists the predicted grades and the extended project as separate lines, so the academic record reads without a transcript.
- The Saturday job and the food bank volunteering are described in one sentence each, which is honest about their scale while still naming the duties.
