The Student Internship template is built for the moment when your strongest signal is your education, not a job history. It leads with Education and Projects, so a capstone, a class build, club leadership, or volunteering can fill the page convincingly while a recruiter sees momentum rather than gaps. The structure stays single-column and machine-readable, but the balanced profile leaves room for a clean Projects block and an Activities line that show initiative beyond coursework. Treat every project like a small job: say what you made, name the tools, and end on a number or an outcome. Reach for this template for internships, co-ops, new-grad postings, and first part-time roles — anywhere you need to prove capability before you can point to years on the job.

Frequently asked questions

I have no work experience — can I still use this?

Yes. The layout leads with Education and Projects, so coursework, a capstone, club work, or volunteering can carry the page until you have jobs to list.

Should I include my GPA?

List it if it is 3.3 or higher, or if the posting asks. Otherwise leave it off and use the space for a project bullet.

Do class projects count as experience?

They do. Describe a project like a job — what you built, the tools you used, and the result — and recruiters read it as real, applied work.
