Schedule What is a resume? Break Out Session & Discussion Tips Create Resume Questions

What is a Resume? Personal information Objective Education “Academic Achievement” or “Relevant Courses” Work experience Skills Not actions: example “Inventory and merchandizing” rather than “Stocked and inventoried supplies” Volunteer Work / Community Service Awards and Recognition Activities, and interests

Why do I need it? Market yourself. Get you an interview (but it is the interview that gets you the job). Apply for jobs. Apply to colleges / clubs / organizations / scholarships. Assist you in filling out applications. Network with other people. Assist your references. Give teachers/counselors information about you when writing letters of recommendation. Shows you will be involved in the community you’re applying

Group Discussion Which resume emphasizes employment? Which resume emphasizes volunteer work? Which resume emphasizes school activities? Which resume emphasizes a program of study? Which type of resume would be the most appropriate for you?

Tips on Formatting Use standard 8.5” x 11” paper Avoid fancy type or difficult-to-read styles Bold, underline, or capitalize headings Double space between sections Single space within sections Copy or print on quality resume paper

Tips on Content Keep it simple and clean Limit your resume to one page Use action verbs Stress skills and accomplishments Be honest and don’t exaggerate Be specific and accurate Put information in order of interest to your targeted reader Be positive and enthusiastic Have someone proofread and critique your resume

Tips on Education Tennessee High, Bristol, TN List GPA if 3.0 and up Anticipated Graduation Date: May 2015 List GPA if 3.0 and up Can Add “Academic Achievement” or “Relevant Courses” section if relevant

Things to Avoid Don’t use “I,” “he/she,” “we,” “us,” etc. Don’t write in sentences Don’t list personal references Don’t include personal information (marital status, religion, appearance, etc) Don’t mention salary or wage
