How To: Resume Writing (Workshop)
January 15–March 10
2:00–2:45 p.m.
Willie and Donald Tykeson Hall 50P (UCC Conference Room)

Ever stare at your resume thinking, “Is this… good? Bad? Chaotic? Who even knows?” Yep, we’ve all been there. Come spend 45 minutes turning that confusion into confidence.

We’ll cover what actually matters on a resume, how to make your experience shine (even if you think you don’t have any), and what to cut so your resume doesn’t turn into a five-page novel. Plus, we’ll break down how AI plays a role in the job application process: what it notices, what it ignores, and how to make sure your resume stands out.

Whether you’re just getting started or think your resume is already polished, you’ll leave with tips to make it clean, strong, and job ready.

Join us in person at the University Career Center, Tykeson Hall, Garden Level 50P and finally feel good about that piece of paper!
