As academics, we are all quite familiar with the structure and format of the CV (Curriculum Vitae).  However, this document is only used within the academic realm.  Outside of academia, resumes are the requested document, and CVs and resumes are quite different.  CVs are a long list of your accomplishments.  Resumes –however – are tailored for the job/organization to which you are applying and describe what you did in the process of obtaining your achievements. 

Join this in-person workshop to learn how to:

• Identify the different sections of a resume and their significance
• Build a resume that highlights your key skills
• Recognize the importance of modifying your resume for every job posting

So bring along your laptop and your lunch to spend some time improving your resume.
