Having a great resume is an important piece of your overall career development and personal branding strategy. Unfortunately, many people get overwhelmed before they even get started. The result is poorly-written resumes that don't get much attention or serve their purpose. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to create an effective resume or improve the one you already have.


Key topics:

Exploring different resume formats and the advantages and disadvantages of each


Writing an effective objective


Determining what work experience to include


Writing qualitative accomplishments


Composing an engaging and informative cover letter


Workshop facilitator Mark Gasche joined Kellogg in January 2014 as Managing Director of the Career Management Center and has more than 22 years of career management, coaching, campus recruiting, and student affairs leadership experience from multiple academic institutions.
