opportunity and/or facility for which you are applying.

off all high school information. Include: name of degree,

Relevant Coursework: Consider the position you are applying 
for and think of 4-6 courses that demonstrate specialized 
education in the field.  Remember to list the full title of the

one of the most important parts of your resume. Bullets are 
preferred over heavily worded paragraphs. Three to five

an action verb. List in reverse chronological order (starting 
with your current job and working back).

regularly.  Also, remember to tailor your resume to the
