Alumnae Resume Guide

Destiny
Destiny M. Barletta

Whether you are a recent graduate, a senior executive, or are navigating a career pivot, your resume highlights information that is used to introduce yourself to prospective employers and people in your field. Impactful resumes require customization and optimization for specific job applications. As you update your resume throughout your career, feature your most relevant skills, recent experience, and what is most important for an employer to know about you. Consider making an appointment with an alumnae career adviser or a career community adviser in your industry to discuss how best to communicate your background and accomplishments on your resume.
