Get your resume checked

Your resume (or CV, short for curriculum vitae) is a document that shows, clearly and concisely, who you are and what you've done in terms of education, work experience, and extracurricular activities. A well-written resume will leave a good first impression with any potential employer. Fine-tune your resume to the job you're applying for. Create a sort of database for yourself that contains all of your experiences and select from that database only the relevant elements for each job application. Have a look at our job application tips as well (see Job application tips).

Getting your resume checked by your career officer

You can get your resume checked by the career officer of your faculty. You could also plan an appointment with one of the other career officers, who work for different faculties. Bring your resume, application letter and the job opening to the interview and perform the career check beforehand. Bring the results from the check along as well.
