Posted by: Kelly Farmer in Creating a Resume that Stands Out
One thing to keep in mind when crafting your resume is to tailor it to the job you are seeking to acquire. Maintain accuracy of all your facts in the resume, but expound on your skills that pertain to the job for which you are applying. For example: if you have a degree and/or experience in web development do not spend much resume real estate on the summer job you had working at a fast food restaurant unless you helped them with their web site.

Everyone involved really cares about keeping the upcoming young professionals in OKC, and they do a wonderful job of opening up the eyes of the college students to new and exciting things that OKC has to offer!

I admit that like most college students nearing graduation I was itching to get out of OK and spread my wings. But Greater Grads showed me all that OKC has to offer and I am happy that I stayed close to my roots.
