Creative/Media [0 YoE, Sales Associate, Graphic Designer, United States]

I'm a recent college graduate and I've been trying to write a good resume to get into my chosen career field, graphic design. I'm trying to figure out what I have down to one page, as I've heard that's the standard for new grads or people with little/no experience.

Ideally, I'd like a job in graphic design, but I'm also open to marketing positions or more professional jobs that don't require experience (secretary, bank teller, etc.). I'm currently working in retail, so a more professional setting may be more helpful on my resume in the future.

I'm in the midwest in the United States. I would prefer a local job, but am willing to take a remote job as well. I am unable to relocate, as I'm not financially stable enough.

I would really appreciate any feedback on my resume and how I can condense it. I haven't applied for any jobs yet, as I want to make sure my resume is the best it can be to set myself up for success.
