You could have a section on "skills," rather than experience, etc.

daycare for your kid or if s/he is in school then there ya go and college for you. (:

I would suggest that you do a google search about resumes. They have a lot of suggestions. And, honestly, get someone who has a good command of the English language to take a look at your information before you send it. By the way, most department stores will not ask for a resume. So you are probably ok.

Its america. and if you want to get a job there tell them that you have to experiance at a paid job. if you have to have expericance then work for some one like .... Mc donalds .... then like quit and put that you worked there for your past reference. :D good luck. if you are not illigal it should not matter if you have worked anywere before. you see them white rich stuck up people get jobs with a snap of a finger when they want to.. even if they have never lifted a finger in there life. just make sure you let them know you are hard working. :D

Include your skills and your expertise in your resume. This will add up.. anyways experience is not always necessary if you are applying for the job that you think you can handle and be a better person.

start with your name and contact information your qualifications ,What you're good at, that makes you the best person for the position. Work experience...doesnt mean work that you had to be paid for, or current experience.....Anything....if you havent done anything in your whole life, then you may have to start at walmart or target, build some experience up, then apply at macy's or bloomingdales list any awards ...attendance, safety.etc. any training you've had education, include where and that you graduated list any languages you're fluent in speaking and writing and offer references if they request them. Good luck and I hope you get the job you're lookin for

Couple of posts with the right idea. Your resume should be a "Functional Resume" instead of a "Job History" resume. The functional one could say things like: Familiar with PC computers and Word Documents Able to keep deadlines and follow schedules. http://jobstar.org/tools/resume/res-func.php
