Building Your On Line Resume Using LinkedIn (January 27, 2014)

Please join the IEEE Susquehanna Section for a presentation/workshop by Don Herres.

Students of all levels and those professionals seeking new employment opportunities are encouraged to join this valuable workshop. Free dinner with beverages is available to the attendees one hour before the presentation/workshop. The purpose of a resume is to get you to the interview with a prospective employer or client. An online resume is different for two reasons: it is not targeted at a specific employer, and it can be found without you submitting it. More than 85% of employers, and nearly all the ones for which you have an interest are using Linkedin. Furthermore, your online visibility is a great asset. This workshop will explore what key elements you need to have, what you should avoid, and how to format your resume so it is easily read by both a person and a computer. Guest wireless is available and participants are invited to bring a computer for the hands on workshop portion.

Participants to this free dinner and presentation/workshop must be registered to attend. Please use the following link to register.
