Event Host: ASC Career Success
The Center for Career and Professional Success and the Department of English will host a Resume Writing Workshop for students in the English major.
In this workshop, English majors and minors will learn to build a stand-out resume. If you have a drafted resume, please bring a copy (printed or digital). If you don’t have one yet, no problem – this workshop will help you develop one. Additionally, if you are currently conducting a job/internship search, feel free to bring copies of job advertisements for opportunities that interest you.
At the end of this workshop, students will be able to:
·Identify the purpose of a resume, its structure, and its key formatting elements
·Distinguish common missteps that job seekers make in resumes
·Recognize what employers look for in applicant resumes and the role that technology (Applicant Tracking Systems) plays in job searches
·Utilize skills developed in the English major to critique and revise resumes (including their own)
·Develop their resumes and tailor them to specific job ads
