How to find your first job out of college

Resume

Your resume is the first impression you make on potential employers, so make it count! Ditch the generic templates and tailor your document to scream “device repair expert.” 

How?

Highlight relevant experience

Did you spend your free time taking apart and reassembling gadgets? Mention it! Participated in hackathons or robotics competitions? Showcase your problem-solving skills! Any certifications in soldering, microchip repair, or specific device brands? Flaunt them!

Quantify your achievements

Did you fix 20 cracked screens in a month, increasing customer satisfaction by 15%? Show off your impact with data! Restored a vintage gaming console to its former glory? Describe the process and highlight your ability to breathe new life into old tech.

Target your resume

Tailor your resume to each specific job you apply for. Identify keywords from the job description and ensure your skills and experience directly address their needs. Don’t be afraid to create different versions for different positions.

Beyond the Resume: Building Your Network

Finding your first job is a marathon, not a sprint.

While a strong resume is crucial, networking your way into the industry can be equally powerful. What to do?

Attend industry events

Attend expos, trade shows, repair workshops, and conferences. Connect with professionals, learn about the latest trends, and showcase your passion.

Join online communities
