Resume Notes and Assignment

Resumes Resumes develop a first impression. Resumes summarize skills, education, experience and abilities. Resumes are NOT an autobiography, telling your whole life story on a piece of paper. They are a summary of your life and qualifications.

Parts of a Resume Heading Identification Name, address, phone number and email address Objective or Summary Statement Career objective or summary of employment desired Education Name of school, type of degree or diploma, year of graduation as well as majors and minors

Parts of a Resume Continued Experience List your experience in chronological order. Identify duties and accomplishments. Skills Things you can do that makes you special—using the computer, speaking a foreign language, etc. Activities / Awards / Interests Clubs, organizations, volunteer experience, sports . . . things that show school/community involvement and leadership skills.

Other Information There is not one “right way” to write a RESUME — everyone is unique. Proofread your resume very carefully for grammar, punctuation, and spelling errors. You do not want ANY mistakes in your resume. Have someone review your resume for mistakes. Get feedback from other people. Make sure that your resume looks good, is easy to understand, and says what you want it to say! Resume is the marketing tool to get you an interview!

Resume Writing Assignment You will need to turn in a typed resume on 1/28/11. You will have one class day to work on this in the school’s computer labs (1/24). This is worth 100 points

Resume Format Your resume should include the following areas: Heading Identification Objective/Summary (what is your primary objective for the remainder of your high school career?) Education (up to this point) Experience (part-time jobs, household jobs like babysitting, mowing the lawn, etc.)

Format Continued Skills (computer skills, language skills, etc.) Activities/Awards/Interests (list what you are involved in, what you’ve accomplished, and what you are interested in) You should also save this resume and continually update it. This will help with college applications in the very near future.
