If you’re planning to apply for internship eligibility this semester, one of the key requirements for approval is a well-crafted resume. We review each resume to ensure it meets professional standards and represents both you and our program in the best possible light. Your resume should be..

• 1-page
• Single sided
• Have no listed home street address

If your resume doesn’t include relevant information or it needs a bit of work, your application could be held for review. Some tips for a successful resume are..

• Include ONLY relevant information – education, experience, skills, coursework, etc.
• In education, order schools reverse-chronologically (College, then High School)
• Don’t clutter – leave white space
• Make it well organized
