This Thursday’s Roundtable: Updated Strategies on Resumes and Cover Letters for Mature Job Seekers
resume
Keeping abreast of the job seeking trends is a big part of staying in the game. How do we spot outdated resume conventions? Is a one-page resume best? Two pages? What should and shouldn’t be included in the work history? Objective Statement or Summary? We’ll also talk about sharing measurable achievements and infusing a “personal brand” into your letter, your resume, and your business cards.

Our new room for the summer is high ceilings, airy – and with windows! Please join us – and with the usual coffee and snacks, compliments of Central Market.

When:
Thursday, June 23
1:00-2:30pm

Where:
Shoreline Community College
Building 9000, Room 9202
