The Career Development Office welcomes guest advisor Tina Smith '03 who has an extensive background in teaching and education administration and currently serves as principal for George Voinovich Contemporary Career High School in Cleveland.

All students are welcome, especially students interested in education and teaching. The resume lab will take place in the CDO Suite, Chalmers 259.

Resume labs are an opportunity to add a recent experience, improve bullet points and get someone else's eyes on your resume. Or you can get some pointers on how to customize your cover letter. Stop by for a few minutes or stay for the whole hour, whatever suits your schedule.

We are also happy to work with you if you are starting from scratch although you might find it easier to set an individual appointment with an advisor or a CSA if that is the case.

This lab has no presentation component. It is simply a time to work with access to CDO staff.
