Life Resume Template

**SuperChief** · 10-06-2014, 06:16 PM

Anyone have a good resume they wouldn't mind sharing? Know of a good place to download a template? I've asked about some cover letter advice here in the past and got some excellent advice, so I figured I could get just as good info about resumes. Current one is a bit dated, stylistically.

Step 1: Buy a box of crayons
Step 2: Draw pictures of your daily activities
Step 3: ?????????
Step 4: Profit

That's a good question. Ideally I'm looking for something in higher ed, so I don't necessarily need any frills; however, I wouldn't mind a little bit of creativity.

You don't need a template, make it simple block format no more than 1 page. I've read 10,000 resumes ones that go on and on hit the trash can.

Faculty position or administration? What level position?

This. Short, sweet, concise, and to the point. Sell yourself. Quickly.

Not the model for faculty positions in higher ed. My CV is more than 20 pages long and I've seen much longer.

Put your name address and contact info at the top center. Then do most recent work experience first. Then education. Then a hand drawn dick picture

You need a quality LinkedIn profile to get the best gigs.

I saw some article about Tom Brady posting on Facebook or something the resume he prepared at the end of college because he wasn't entirely sure he'd be drafted.

Things worked out pretty well for him, so you could try copying his.
