Resumes:

Your resume may be one of the most important documents of your professional career. It must of course include your work history in a logical and readable form, but it should also highlight your goals, skills, experience and interests.

Let Beverly Hills English's lead instructor, Jake Carpenter, discuss your existing resume with you and review its format, sequence, grammar and punctuation. As part of this process, Jake will also help you find appropriate, proactive verbs and wording that can highlight your accomplishments at previous jobs. The final product will be a completed resume that represents you professionally and that you can be proud to use in your job search.

If you haven't yet written your resume, Jake will discuss several formatting options with you. He will then work with you, step-by-step, to reconstruct your employment history and present it in a positive, clear and grammatically correct manner that will be appropriate for the type of employment you are seeking.
