How should I describe manual labor experience for a business (marketing) job?

Question by trippingchris1: How should I describe manual labor experience for a business (marketing) job?
I am trying to get an internship for a marketing job during college. The problem is that my only work history is being a mover for a moving company. How should I describe this job in my work experience on my resume to make it somewhat fit for a marketing business job?

I was thinking something like working in small groups, communication, etc but would love some input on how to word this.

Thanks

I imagine a resume for a marketing company is extremely important because it shows how well you can market yourself!

As a college student, you should probably be alright with no professional work experience. That’s exactly what internships are for.

Just be straightforward about the job. The fact that you worked a tough manual labor job means that a desk job will be a breeze for you. It’s not like they can throw anything at you that’s more rough than hauling a hide-a-bed down a spiral staircase.

Good luck!
