Resume' sessions

Recently, Asala Center has held some resume' sessions.  One resume' was more arts-based, and today's was based in an environmental science career.  It's very interesting to hear how people think of what they have done with their time---most of the time, it's a lot more impressive than you think! 

I am indebted to a college career center.  I felt rather insecure about my experience because my summer jobs had been working at Waffle House and as an educational clown.  I had a lot of volunteer experience, though, and when I described some of what I had been doing, the counselor pointed out that I had been facilitating meetings.  That made me sound much fancier, and I suddenly realized how many things I had been doing within college that were valuable experience for a resume' of a college student. 

I encourage people to think outside the box regarding their own experiences.  Try to think of yourself as a really healthy and tasty cereal you're trying to sell---how would you word it then?
