The skills section is what you really need to work on. Since you have no real experience in the work world, at least you can elaborate on your skills to let the HR guy know what you are at least capable of. Despite what someone else said, don't add stuff like community service if you didn't do it. Lying on your resume can only turn out bad.
And mowing lawns ain't so bad. I did similar menial work during the Summer once. You could say "landscaping" or "gardening" if you don't want to put "mowing lawns" on your resume. At least it's better than nothing.

Here's a sample of mine: Resume
I think you should take out the extra white spaces. Don't indent your contents. Highlight each category / sections title (Work Experience, Education, etc). See if you can mention any of your achievements. You may want to split your "Abilities" section into two. Or you can just simply change it to skills. You can have Computer Skills which can include software / hardware and Technical Skills, which can include anything technical but does not necessarily fall under Computer Skills. You can center your name, address, and info. Get to the point. Don't use really, really long sentences.

Much better. The only major change I'd do is to swap the high school and the college around. It would look better that way, and people will be able to see in just one glance the level of education you have. Putting the college second means they have to read quite a bit to finally see that you are in college.
Don't feel bad,
I sent a resume To Hickory Tech for a techinal ditrector position and I got a letter saying and I qoute "after reveiwing your resume we have decided not fill the position"
Now I may not have been qualified for the job but after reading mine it was SO BAD they decided to hire NOBODY:Q

As would I
just curous, how many people use that ms word template for their resume? I goto job fairs and estimate easily 60% of people just use that.
that is not bad, i am 21 and never even had any kind of job. Btw your resume is not that bad and u did kind of go up from store insider to solutions advisor but one question are u still working as solutions advisor?
ok, i redid parts of my resume, so can someone tell me what they think of it?
