About Industry Resumes: After you've created the basic content of your resume if you haven't yet, find and use a resume template (such as through Adobe Creative Express) to help develop a creative "look" and approach (keeping it to one page!), as is a regular practice for creative industries. Make sure your e-query is short, sweet, and proofed thoroughly.
Good luck!
