Resumes

Resume Building Worksheet

Take the first steps in putting your experiences on paper by building a resume! Remember, there are 3 types of resumes:

Foundational Resume (sometimes called a C.V.)
Your "personal library" of everything you've done including (but not limited to) work history, volunteer experiences, academic projects, coursework, leadership and more. If you are pursuing academia as a profession, you may be asked to submit or provide a C.V.
Tailored Resume
This is a separate or new document that is customized to integrate keywords from the position description of a specific job posting you're interested in applying to. Only list relevant and powerful experiences reflecting job responsibilities and qualifications.
Aspirational Resume
Typically used to showcase relevant experiences towards the industry or type of work you aspire to pursue. This resume format is helpful to use at career fairs or as your LinkedIn profile.

Need personalized help? Make an appointment with a career coach who can offer guidance in crafting strong descriptions that illustrate your talent and skill set.

Cover Letters

Cover Letter Worksheet

Tell your story, explain "why that particular company?" or "why that specific role?"

A cover letter is your time to shine and draw in the reader through a narrative that weaves together how your unique experiences can fulfill the job responsibilities. Remember,

BE SPECIFIC.

BE RELEVANT.

BE AUTHENTIC.

A career coach is ready and willing to offer guidance or review your materials to strengthen clarity and flow.
