Resume Book

2009 Resume Book
CDO produces an annual hard copy and pdf resume book to distribute to employers. The publication includes general information regarding our programs and qualifications of our students, and includes resumes of graduating students and students looking for summer internships. This is an excellent way to get your resume distributed widely, as it goes to employers beyond those registered in GeO*. Submitting a resume for the book is highly recommended!

Any student who wishes to be included must submit a one-page resume to the OptimalResume Review Center by November 1.

Process for resume book:


1) Create a draft of your resume that highlights your experience and education.
2) Seek review by CDO staff and Peer Career Advisors.
3) Create a one-page resume using the OptimalResume Yale Resume Book template.
4) Submit your one-page resume for review through the Review Center on OptimalResume by November 1 (due to the logistics involved in creating the resume book, there will be no exceptions to this deadline).
5) Make necessary revisions as per response from CDO through Review Center on OptimalResume (responses will come between November 2 and 10).
6) Submit finalized resume through OptimalResume Review Center by November 14.

For general information on resume writing, see Job Application Materials.

* IMPORTANT: You will also want to post your resume on GeO in the appropriate folder (or multiple folders) for the many employers who have direct access to GeO.
