Craft Your Optimal Resume

Tuesday, November 28, 2017 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM

Presented by: Spencer Bonadeo, Client Relations Coordinator, CRC & Kristina Phillips, Executive Director, CRC

Resumes are the first impression of professionalism on which an employer will begin to judge an applicant, and it is critical to capture an employer’s attention in a positive way. A resume should be neat, succinct, and tell your unique (and delightfully employable!) narrative. In this workshop, we will cover:

  • General formatting of a resume and how to beat the Applicant Tracking System (ATS)
  • How to transform your job responsibilities into career accomplishments through SAR
  • Best practices for resumes in any situation

Attendees will also walk away with a digital template of a well formatted resume which they can use or modify in their job search, so sign up today as space is limited!
