Hello.
I'm thinking about getting a job.
But since I'm young, I have never dealt with a "resume" at all.
That is, I kind of know, I need to write there what knowledge I have and what projects I have.
And here the problem is that if I know languages \u200b\u200bplus or minus well (well, that is, I write fluently in them, I know where to look for answers specifically for the task, etc.) e) but did not write serious projects? And how to be? Spread small programs in 300 lines of code in your resume? It's simple with fantasy, everything is bad. In general, the main question is: will they hire if there is not a single project in the resume? Is there any other way to prove that I know languages well? Heard there problems give and questions at the interview?

Lol. And I was looking for a criterion for good knowledge of languages.
Web? No. Even if they do.
You can swear on the Bible or the Torah.
And they ask about experience, yeah.
On the topic: write a pet project. One, but big and useful, and poke it in every interview you can get.

Do as Lebedev in design - come up with 5-10 imaginary projects, work on them and then knock on the job with a "folder" of finished projects, showing these works of yours. In any case, you should have a portfolio.

All employers are different and have different needs. Not everyone is interested in a portfolio, including on the web. It all depends on where you are looking for work. With weak competition, they take even with poor knowledge, what kind of portfolio is there. But it may turn out that in your city the competition is high.
Even from 300 lines of code, certain conclusions can be drawn.
And do not write in the resume that you know C ++, C, C #, Python well, these are too different languages, and when they see this in the resume of a 24-year-old applicant, it seems that he does not know anything. It is clear that the language is just a tool, but it is better to decide what you specialize in, and indicate it, the rest in addition to what you wrote in them.
In addition, any answers here may be contradictory, open your resume and many things will become clear.
