Not those stupid résume templates they made us fill out during high school, where the only jobs we could list were babysitting, JV Cheerleading, and serving frozen yogurt at T.C.B.Y (for three weeks before getting fired for not “taking the job seriously”). Well…that was what mine looked like, anyway.

The dreaded résume is inevitable, and there are definitely rules to follow if you want to create one that is kick-ass, as opposed to one that gets shuffled in with the masses, never to be seen again. There are tons of sites out there that will tell you what you SHOULD do with your résume. Read More »
