It should contain your contact information, your employment and educational history, skills such as computer programming, familiarity with commonly used computer programs, as well as internships, awards, volunteer service, training and any other experience you have that is relevant to education.

* Current unofficial transcripts from your undergraduate and graduate education. If you have attended more than one institution, please copy and combine these transcripts into one document. How to submit your unofficial transcripts:

* If you are a Fresno State student:
Sign into (Use the "Apply for this Job" box below). Access your Unofficial Transcript. Highlight all text throughout the document, copy it and paste it into a word processor document, and save the document with your name somewhere in the file name.

* If you are not yet a Fresno State student:

Contact your institution's registrar to find out how to access your unofficial transcript and follow the process described above.
