hey, /adv/, I'm a recent high school graduate and now I'm looking for my first job until I ship off to boot camp. I don't know what to put down on my resume other than some past volunteer work, AP/honors classes, and odd jobs I've done. What are some things I can put on it? Thanks in advance

Put down clubs and associations down as well such as if you were part of the Boy Scouts. IF you also received awards as well or certifications, do that too.
Don't put oddjobs unless you did them for a good while and if they are relevant to the job in which you are applying for.

volunteer work and job related odd jobs. pad it out and make it look nice.
Straight up whatever is hiring you is hiring you knowing your young the moment they meet you.

They're not extremely relevant but seeing as I'm applying to an auto parts store and I did landscaping, I focused on the engine and carburetor servicing on lawnmowers, weedeaters, etc.

Another question, these applications always ask me the starting pay expected, and there's no way to not answer them and they won't let me put "any" in the box. What should I put, considering it's my first job?

If you are okay with "any", just put the state minimum wage.
