The profile says in a few lines what the person does well and what job they want, without vague phrases like "I am hard-working".
With little experience, courses, certificates and activities count: each one shows a skill the job asks for.
Experience describes concrete tasks (serving customers, organizing documents) instead of just the job title.
Full contact details at the top and a one-page resume: that is what the recruiter reads first.

Profile
I have completed high school and am looking for my first permanent job as an administrative assistant or receptionist. As a young apprentice, I learned the routine of an office: organizing documents, updating spreadsheets and answering the phone politely. Volunteering at my neighborhood association taught me patience and care when helping families. I am organized, punctual and responsible, and I took courses at Senac and CETAM to prepare myself. I want to grow with the company and I am always eager to learn.
