Resumes can either break you or make you and I discovered just exactly how vital they are after reading about them in the Idea Industry book. Although I had written a resume before entering college, I most certainly did not remember all of the correct guidelines for crafting an excellent resume. It also made me realize that I really have not accomplished as much as I would have liked. I should have more job/intern experience. I enjoyed the way Brad Karsh wrote this section because he was straightforward and honest about the way that Recruiting Directors will be judging your resume. These people have no time to waste which means that myresume needs to have some outstanding quality that separates me from everyone else. At this point, my resume needs some serious work!
