Day 8 – Resumes

Friday, September 17

So this will be a throw back to your days in CLE.  Hopefully some of you have a resume from then or one you have used for your job.  Either way your objective is to develop a professional looking resume for your upcoming placement and for you to use in the future.  I can assure you that if you haven’t updated it since your CLE class it is likely not good enough. I will go through the documents below with you as there is some useful information there.  Please have a draft copy available for me to provide feedback on by next class.
