Hosted by: MIT Career Advising & Professional Development (CAPD)

In preparation for the Spring Career Fair and your job search, this workshop presented by Bob Dolan, will discuss the many ways of creating a resume that effectively targets the Hiring Manager. Can your resume survive a 15 second scan and still get into the YES pile? Discussions will surround the strategies of effective messaging and how to be “on-point” with your written communication.

Your resume is not an autobiography, but rather a list of relevant accomplishments that links your skills to the needs of the company. You’ll use these techniques in your lifelong career strategies. Actual MIT PhD/Postdoc resumes will be provided as handouts.

About Get Good Stuff Done: Want to make a difference in the world? These workshops, offered by centers across MIT’s campus, help you learn more, lead or contribute to a team, start and fund ventures, and work in and with communities in Boston and around the world.
