OJT / Intern resume guide (Philippines)

An OJT resume is usually your first resume. Companies know you are still a student, so they look at your course, your school projects, and whether you can learn and show up.

Put Education first, then projects and organizations.

What to highlight

  • Your course, year level and school
  • School projects and what you did in them
  • Organization roles, volunteer work or part-time jobs
  • Software and tools you already know
  • The number of OJT hours you need and your availability
