Published: March 04, 2021

The idea of a resume seems simple enough, but once you sit down to create one, the process can be overwhelming. Did you remember your whole work history? How do you highlight specific skills for specific employers? What’s the best way to organize all of that information?

If you’d like expert assistance as you create your resume – or update an old one – count on the people from NCWorks. Focused on workforce development, they support job-seekers and employers, so they’re well-versed in the best ways to present yourself to hiring managers.

In partnership with the library, NCWorks is offering a virtual resume-writing workshop at 2 pm on Tuesday, March 9. They’ll provide terrific advice on showcasing your skills and experience on paper and will share helpful tips to get you noticed in all the right ways.
