Accounting Resume

Wednesday, March 25, 2009

I want to give you couple of hints about your resume,

First of all if you still have your high school resume,
or your resume includes information from your high school get rid it of it.
Whatever accomplishments you have done in high school are in your past now.

I could talk about resumes for hours, but I will just give you some very important highlights

Now that you have got your resume,

Very Important

It has to be 1 page long, do not have a resume that is longer than one page


It has to be easy to read

It should include following information

  • Your name and address
  • Your Objective
  • University, Major, Expected Graduation
  • GPA - you have to include it
  • Classes that you have taken related to your major
  • Your work experience
  • Leadership
  • Skills
  • References - If you don't have any references just say some thing like "reference is available upon request" - but its good to include reference
This is it, don't include anything more.

After you get your resume don't, go make an appointment with someone at your career services department so that they can take a look at it.

Hints

Put whatever GPA is higher, if your major GPA is 3.5 but your overall GPA is 3.2 then put your major GPA
