Before you can write an effective résumé, it is essential that you take a good hard look at yourself and assess your needs, strengths, skills, and goals. What do you really want to do? What are your interests? What things are important to you as you seek employment? What skills do you have? (As a liberal arts student, you have many). Why are you writing this résumé? Who will be reading this résumé?
If you are not sure where to begin in answering these questions, we encourage you to make an appointment with a career counselor to assist you with self-assessment and to discuss your career goals.
