Professional MBA students, are you graduating in the spring? Is your resume updated? Even though you can make these edits any time, now is an especially important time to address your resume and supporting materials. The Career Management folder found in Blackboard through your PMBA Community Organizations listing provides helpful information, direction and templates to assist you. Developing an effective, relevant resume is your first step, so use the resume template found there to craft a resume that meets employers’ expectations of MBA-level candidates. Use the key words list to find interesting vocabulary that can add dynamics to your resume content. When you have finished your resume, send it as a Word attachment to Diane Cumbie for comments and suggestions. Expect a reply within 2-3 business days.
Other ways to build your professional profile are through Handshake (requires the
resume template), LinkedIn and profile presence through the Moore Connect platform.
Consider these for professional industry connections and job opportunities that can
search for you.
