Resume and Cover Letters

Resumes and Cover Letters give employers a quick snapshot of who you are and your qualifications for the job. Your job in creating your resume is to highlight specific jobs and experiences you have had in order to secure a job interview. Because resumes are the first look employers have at who you are, they need to be carefully written and critiqued. In Career Services we can help you create your first resume or edit an existing resume. We can meet in person, via the phone, or through email.
