RESUME PREPARATION
Your resume is important! Recruiters will receive electronic copies of the Resume Book about a week before the Career Fair, as well as a hard-copy version at the event. Some recruiters will use the Resume Book to schedule private interviews with selected candidates.
REQUIREMENTS
There will be NO EXCEPTIONS to the following requirements:
- One page only.
- No photos or graphics permitted.
- Resumes must be submitted electronically as MS Word files.
- The filename must be your last name followed by your first name. For example, John Smith should name his resume SmithJohn.doc (The resumes will be alphabetized by filename.)
