Resume tips for Programmers

Avatar Category: Blogs | 322 days ago |
Several months ago I wrote a blog about a student who was seeking guidance on what would be considered an “ideal” skill set as a future Computer Engineer. When revisiting his original blog entry in OSUM it is clear there are many others that feel just as nervous and concerned about their future prospects.

Along similar lines, today I came across an article that talks about what HR professionals look for in a Programmer's resume, so I thought I would link to it here. As many of you know, making a good resume takes quite a bit of time and effort along with countless revisions. It is really a never-ending process! But, it is important because it is often what can get you into the actual interview to potentially land a job.


So, give this article a read and really take the time to measure and quantify all of your achievements at your internship, your job, or with any volunteer work you may do. It will also serve you well to capture important events as they happen – don't wait or you may totally forget about them altogether!
