Starting Your Powerful Resume

Starting a resume might seem daunting, but it’s your chance to shine! This beginner-friendly workshop is designed for students who are new to resume writing or want to strengthen their foundation. You’ll learn how to showcase your unique qualifications, experiences, skills, and interests—even if you think you don’t have much experience yet. By the end, you’ll have the tools to create a polished resume that helps you stand out to potential employers. Registration is encouraged but not required.

Important Note: Sometimes our workshops get very crowded. We recommend registering on Handshake in advance to secure your spot. While registration isn’t required, priority will be given to registered students, followed by first-come, first-served. Once we reach room capacity, we may not be able to admit additional attendees.

This event is open to all eligible persons regardless of race, color, or national origin. Reasonable accommodations are available upon request, please contact careercenter@illinois.edu.
