Resumes/Letters

A resume is the most professional representation of your work and skill related background. There is no "perfect" or "right" resume format - it depends upon the job you hope to find and your past experiences. Remember, the purpose of a resume is to get you a job interview. The interview gets you the job. CaneZONE allows you to submit your resume to companies who have posted jobs/internships and for on-campus interviews. To view the resume development guide, go to Resume Development Guide.


For help creating your resume utilizing the latest technology go to Optimal Resume. Once you create an account Optimal Resume provides you with professionally written samples based on specific industries and experience level. Also, it offers tips, templates, and instructions to create the best resume possible!

As you proceed with your job search, it will also be necessary for you to prepare various types of correspondence, including cover letters, networking letters, and thank you letters. The same careful attention should be given to these, as they are also important in conveying the positive and professional image necessary to a successful job search. To view the letters guide, go to Letter Writing Guide. Remember, the sample letters are intended to serve only as examples. Use them as models, but be sure to tailor your correspondence specifically to the individual, organization and/or position you are seeking.
