Resume Assignment

Last Name:

In this problem-solving exercise, you will use a table to create your own resume. Your completed document will look similar to the one shown in Figure 1.

Examples of resume formats:

· Examine Figure 1 . This sample of a resume uses a three-column table with only a first column and first row border displayed. The middle column is used for dates when needed or merged with the third cell in the row to expand the text across a wider area.

· Examine Figure 2 , which displays the resume as it looks with all of the table borders visible. Notice the rows that have been added to increase space between major headings. The major topics in the left column have been aligned on the left and emphasis has been added.

Assignment Directions:

1. Create a three-column table with four rows to start—you can add more rows as needed. Remove all of the borders.

2. Add a bottom border to the top row, and a right border to the first column. The bottom border of the first cell may be overwritten when you add the border to the right of the first column. If necessary, re-apply the bottom border.

3. Fill in your name and personal information at the top of the table, formatting it appropriately.

4. Direct your objective statement toward the job for which you are applying. You can write this as if applying for the job you already have, one you would like to have, or for a specific job posting.

5. Using the figures as a model, enter information for your own resume. The content of the figures provide tips on the type of information and format to use when writing a resume.

6. Proofread your resume and correct any spelling, grammar, or typographical errors.
