Is Your Resume Ready?

Posted on by

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

If you are still having trouble putting together a resume or want someone to look it over, the Career Resource Center offers great resume help. Look out for Resumania on Monday, October 20, 2025 at the CRC from 9am-4pm!
