Berkeley Extension's Career Services Presents:

“Branded” Resume Basics

On average, employers spend just six to seven seconds looking at each resume that comes across their desk. So, what exactly are they looking for, and most important, what will make your resume stand out?

Your resume is an advertisement for YOU. You are the product, and your resume is one of the most important advertising tools you have. Whether you're working on your first resume or your fiftieth, resumes need to be fresh and relevant. Come learn the basics of writing a resume to market yourself, with special attention paid to those tricks that will help you showcase YOU as the candidate for the role.

Taught by Heather Mason, founding member of UC Berkeley Extension's Career Services, the lead instructor of our Professional Internship Program, certified Career Development Coach, and career advisor with nearly 15 years of experience advising professionals. She's also designed around 600 resumes for students, clients, friends, and family.
