Jobs and CareersBy Brian G Chadra
Writing a resume for a college graduate is similar in many respects to that of any other type. In this case, however, the education section is probably more important than the experience area. Recent college graduates have the latest and greatest information available - especially in the areas of technology and science. In these venues, information is exchanged quite rapidly, sometimes updated daily as new advancements are discovered and shared in their respective communities.
So it's this particular strength that you want to highlight for prospective employers. Having the standard header and job objective parts of the resume completed, place your education header next, since it is the first thing an employer will really take a good look at. List the college attended along with dates and degrees awarded. Now, since you are probably short on experience but long on education, let's really showcase this to companies. Many employers will grant education in lieu of experience -- especially the U.S. government, they offer many paid holidays and a great pension plan if you are interested in working for Uncle Sam. Now list any relevant classes that you took that relate to the job sector being targeted.
Be sure to include any laboratories that can be used to prove a knowledge or awareness of this occupation. In addition, list any work study, internship or co-op experience that was a part of the degree program (or not). This shows a willingness to go above and beyond the call of duty while also demonstrating a more well-rounded individual to a firm. Be sure to finish up with any job experience that you have had in the past no matter how small. Being able to hold a job is important, no minimize this achievement. Finally include any hobbies or volunteer work or awards that you have gained. Sometimes these will strike a chord with a manager, giving you a foot in the door. That's it, good luck!
Until next time,
