Career Corner – Top 5 Resume Tips!

The end of the year is approaching, and it's the perfect time to start applying for internships! Here's our top 5 tips to help you impress your future employer!

Tailor your resume. Look through the description and match the job requirements to your unique skillset.

1.

Quantify your resume. For an example, if you saved your company a specific amount of money, mention it! Numbers tend to stand out on a resume and can be an effective way to catch an employer's attention.

2.

Be concise. The typical college student should have a 1 page resume. Remember, employers will only look at your resume for a few seconds, so make the most of it!

3.

Keep it chronological. Your most recent work experience should be first, with your oldest being last. Your future employer will be able to see your most recent work first!

4.

Stay consistent. Keep your formatting the same throughout your resume and ensure there are absolutely no spelling errors! Your resume is a good reflection of your work ethic and attention to detail.

5.

I hope these tips helped you out! If you have any questions, you can email me at [email protected] or

stop by the TOM & EBZ department. Happy Holidays!
