Freshman Seminar Fall 17 LC09

Career Blog Post

For my third blog post I chose to go to the STARR career development center for a resume review. I thought this would be good because I also had to get my resume reviewed for a women in business induction requirement. I thought it would be good to take care of both tasks in one trip. I had been wanting to get my resume reviewed for a while but I never had the time to go. I had been involved in BSA as well, so I had been spending a lot of time prepping for the mock wedding. I was practicing my dancing because I was in some of the dance performances and other actives.So after the wedding last night I finally had some time. Today I was really happy because I finally had my resume printed and I was ready to go. I went to the office and signed up for an appointed. After about ten minutes of waiting I was able to go in and meet with a counselor, her name was Melissa. She was really nice and helped me a lot with my resume. We went through each portion of my resume and she told me whatever I needed to change about it and what I could improve. She also helped with my word choice and formatting. The formatting was really a lot of help because I had so much to write, it wasn’t fitting properly so I learned I could edit the margins, which was amazing. She also showed me a ton of example resume which I could use to help me work on my own. I was really glad that I went because I really did learn a lot from her. She told me about how she formatted her own resume and how good it looked. After we were done she made a copy of my resume and her edits and I was able to leave. After leaving I was really excited to start making all her edits to my resume!
