On December 7th, I attended a workshop called “Writing Winning Resumes” hosted by STARR. It made me notice a lot of things that I never noticed before, and it also made me learn the significance of writing a good resume.
The instructor firstly went over the different types of resumes that different careers that may require. I never knew that there are so many types of them. Through the speech of the instructor, I gradually learned that the resume is the first impression to your employer, which a good resume can catch the first sight of the company and make you outstand than the others in the first place, but at the same time, even a little single mistake that you make in the resume can let your impression down, thus when we are writing a resume, we have to notice every little single detail that may cause the damage of our image.
Others things that the instructor went over, such as put your skills, work experience, etc. in the resume are pretty much the same as I heard from my other friends who are working now, but the instructor put things in a more detail way, like how to make them organize well and look pretty good overall.
All in all, this workshop really helps me a lot, and I believe that after this workshop, I can have more confidence to write a good resume to make my image up.
