I only had 1 professional job and I'm wondering if I should even put an old part time job during college that's not related to my IT career. I'm not sure what else I can put under the Experience section but without it, my resume is pretty empty with only 1 position. So is it lame to put a 5 yr old part time job that's unrelated to your professional development?

What was the job?

And what is the job you're applying for?

A lot of times you'd be surprised how you could draw experience from it that would relate to a future job.

It was a straight Data Entry job at UPS.

What job are you applying for?

What kind of stuff did you do at UPS? Deal with customers at all?

I just scanned packages and verified customer information on packages.
I'm in IT Auditing and I'm applying for a Security Analyst position

I don't think any of the supervisors still work there.
