Resume help

When you create or update your resume, use resources like these to gather information and describe your work activities.

• job descriptions of past jobs—include any part-time work or work experience you’ve done
• the action words list
• copies of performance reviews, or reports that describe how well you tackled job tasks
• transcripts of educational records or course descriptions to jog your memory about what you’ve studied
• certificates or records of seminars or conferences you’ve attended—include any courses you took out of school hours, such as swimming classes or a computer course
• letters of appreciation from customers or clients— thank-you letters or cards look particularly good.
