Creating your Résumé Computer Information Technology

Objectives  The Student will:  Be able to complete a résumé using one of the templates

Starting Your Résumé  Before you create your résumé you should decide what “categories” you will include.  For a High School student I recommend the following: 1.Objective 2.Education 3.Work Experience 4.Volunteer Experiences 5.Extracurricular Activities 6.Languages 7.Computer Skills

Picking a Résumé Template  There are many résumé templates available in office  Many from monster.com  Some from users  A few from Microsoft.  Pick a template you find aesthetically pleasing (i.e. it looks good!)  You want your résumé to stand out but don’t go overboard.

Résumé Template  Once you have selected your template you begin to customize it…  Remove what’s there and add your information.  Keep the style

Résumé Objective: Tailor this to the job your looking for Experience: Give some details Extracurricular: Include any leadership roles or awards Skills: include any skills that set you apart from the other applicants

First Impressions  Résumé is often the first impression an employer has of you.  Does it look professional?  Is everything spelled correctly?  Did you use upper and lower case letters?

True Example  This was received last year:  What do you think Ms. Glynn thought of this person? ATTN:Nancy J. Apke Hello I would like to introduce myself. My name is xxxxx xxxxxx.
