What you’ll learn:

  • How to make resumes and portfolios stand out through content and layout
  • What not to do on a resume
  • Edits to complete after the class

How it works:
Cover current resume trends by job title (Account Manager, Creative Director, Graphic Designer and Developer). Then, instructors will show you examples of good and bad resumes and portfolios and walk through them. Lastly, instructors will call on a few students to bring their resumes in front of the class for critique.
