I worked at blockbuster for 3 summers (and 2 winters, not as important), how do I write the dates for that, so it doesnt seem so overwhelming with dates?

I am a teen looking for a job, I am 17 years of age. I was wondering if you need of resume to work at jobs like:

Smoothie King
GameStop
McDonalds
Burger King
etc.

Also, what should I expect if they happen to call me in? This will be my first time ever getting a job.

I am a student in college and I am beginning to write my resume. I am on the part of my resume about job experience. I only have had one job before in customer service as a service clerk in a grocery store. It’s not that important of a job but is there any way I can make this job sound more important/professional than it is on my resume? :) Ideas of what to say are appreciated. For my job I bagged groceries, pushed carts, put away overstock, assisted customers,…

Their website only have a 6 pages long official application form which includes employment history (but did not ask for detailed description) and an email address which is “for job application or enquiries”. I’ll attach the application form with the email as my cover letter but do I still need to send a detailed resume?

Is there an agency that helps with finding a job, writing a Resume and things like that? In Germany we have the “Arbeitsamt” (Job center) – where you go to register if you’re unemployed and looking to find a job – they help with resume, application and employers call there when they need to find employees. How does this works here?

Thats my Question..
And what does a Resume mean? Why do they even need one from who is applying?

even if I don’t have any job experience? when they called to set up an appointment for an interview they never mentioned anything about bringing a resume. on the application i sent in it asked for previous job, education, experience, etc. (things that normally go onto the resume) if that helps

I am 19 and have never had a job before & now I really need to work and am ready. Since I was home-schooled, I don’t have any references. I also don’t have any job experience.

What can I put on my resume or how can I describe myself without experience or references?
Please help.
Thanks

I’m only 19 and this is for a job doing after-school daycare. I’m in elementary education at a university. The job isn’t quite as professional as getting a job in the “real” workforce. Its just a minimum wage job.

Do I put my date of birth?
Anything other than high school and college, work experience, volunteer experience?
