Resume and Interview tips

Graduation is around the corner and many of you will be looking for employment in this tough economy. I want to share with you a few valuable tips from my visit at Y&R with Account Manager Belle Frank.

Anything is fair game, “if you don’t want to talk about it, don’t put it on your resume.”

GPA Doesn’t count " it’s all about presentation.”

Objective is always on top followed by work experience then education.

Eliminate high school education because, “ no one cares?”

Don’t list every job you had “FIND A FOCUS."

Do not list your current courses or courses you have taken find another way to incorporate it on your resume.

Times New Roman is old fashioned and boring find a different style, but nothing TOO crazy.

You don't always need to place your employment in chronological order. You can group them together and talk about your responsibilities in those positions you held.

Never arrive too early for an interview. Eight to five minutes is good enough.

Always ask questions, it shows the employer that you're interested in the job you trying to get.

Well! That is all. I can't give you all the secrets. Now you're on your own!
