Hamza is putting together his first resumé. He is hoping to get a job at a local ice cream stand this summer. He is only in high school and does not have a lot of job experience, but he has done a lot of community service. Since it does not have a lot of information on it, he just wrote a list of the community service projects he completed. Does he need more than this?
