Quick answers

Frequently asked questions

What do I write without any experience?

Education, skills (craft, shift work, health), work attitude and any short jobs you have done (helper, seasonal). Factories hiring general labor mostly look at attitude and availability.

Does a worker resume need a photo?

Yes, it is recommended. Factories and shops often recognise applicants by their ID photo, so this template has a 3×4 photo box at the top. Upload a clear, front-facing photo on a plain background.

Should I submit a printed resume or a file?

Many factories take paper applications at the gate; shops and service chains accept files via Zalo or email. Download the PDF to send or print; both work.
