Do you use templates? Full sentences? Stress only your paid work? 

Don't miss opportunities to market your liberal arts education!

First and Second Year Students

• Before you start, review Rules for a College Student Resume. 
• Just need the basics? See Resume 101.
• Do you have more work experience or are you active on campus? See examples from Resume 2.0.

Upperclass students:

• Developing your Resume will help you write a more sophisticated resume.
• Read about Writing a CV to see if it's appropriate for you.  Most new college graduates don't yet have the background for a scholarly CV until after grad school.  For an example of a scholarly CV, ask your adviser to see hers/his.
