Class Experience

Are you looking for a "master" resume that highlights all of your achievements or a targeted resume that is tailored to a specific opportunity? At what point is a single resume not enough?

In this individualized session, I will meet you wherever you are in the resume writing process. We will discuss your experiences, accomplishments, and future goals to determine how to compose your master resume and/or tailor your resume for a specific opportunity. You will learn what areas of a typical resume a hiring manager prioritizes and what you should not include on a resume.

We will review current best practices and identify areas for improvement in your own resume, including:
- formatting and appearance
- using clear, concise, and specific language
- using keywords and active verbs
- how to chunk or categorize information
- how to show instead of tell

Once you have enrolled, I recommend sharing a resume draft with me in the classroom for review before we meet. Please note, if you plan to start your resume from scratch during our session, more than one meeting may be needed to achieve an outstanding resume.
