A strong resume is a key tool for communicating your skills, experiences, and impact to employers beyond academia. This workshop will help graduate students and postdoctoral scholars understand how to effectively translate their academic training into clear, targeted resumes for a range of career paths. Participants will learn best practices for structure, content, and tailoring resumes to specific roles, as well as common pitfalls to avoid. The session will include practical examples and guidance to help attendees strengthen their resumes as part of their broader career readiness and job search strategy.

Delivered by Alan Farber, PhD, an experienced career coach and higher education career development specialist.
