What recruiters look for

  • Things you made: posts, emails, videos, flyers, survey reports. Name them and link a portfolio if you have one.
  • A number for each: reach, opens, clicks, attendance, followers. Small numbers are fine; no numbers are not.
  • Tools you can use on day one: Canva, CapCut, Meta Business Suite, Mailchimp, GA4, Excel.
  • Initiative on campus: clubs, events, a student business. Leading something counts as experience.
  • Writing: clear, short bullets on the resume itself are the first sample a recruiter sees.

Writing the summary

Say your school, major and graduation date, then what you have done and can do. End with the internship you want and when. Three short sentences.

Skills to list

Hard skills

  • Canva and basic Adobe (Photoshop, Express)
  • Short-form video editing (CapCut, Premiere Rush)
  • Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn
  • Email tools (Mailchimp, Klaviyo)
  • Google Analytics 4 basics
  • Excel or Google Sheets
  • Survey tools (Qualtrics, Google Forms)
  • Copywriting

Soft skills

  • Curiosity
  • Taking feedback on creative work
  • Meeting deadlines alongside classes
  • Working in teams

Certifications and licenses worth listing

  • Google Analytics Certification (Google Skillshop): free and widely recognized; shows you can read web data.
  • HubSpot Academy certifications (Inbound, Content Marketing, Social Media Marketing): free and useful for a student with little experience.
  • Meta Blueprint courses: worth a line if you want social or paid social internships.

Length and format

One page. Education first while you are a student, then experience (internships, campus jobs and part-time work), then activities, skills and certifications. A two-column layout fits tools, certifications and languages in the sidebar.

Common mistakes

  • Listing “social media” as a skill without saying which platforms and what you made.
  • Leaving out part-time jobs. A café or retail job shows reliability and customer sense.
  • Copying class descriptions instead of naming one class project and its result.
  • A portfolio link that leads to an empty page or a private account.
  • Using a heavily designed template that an applicant tracking system cannot read.

Questions and answers

What should a marketing intern put on a resume with no experience?

Class projects with real clients, student clubs, social accounts you run, part-time jobs, and the free certifications listed above. Treat each like a job: what you made and what happened.

Should I include my GPA on a marketing internship resume?

Include it if it is 3.3 or higher, or if the application asks for it. A low GPA is better left off; let projects speak.

Do I need a portfolio for a marketing internship?

It helps, especially for social media and content roles. A simple page with five or six samples and a line on each result is enough.
