Building a resume can be difficult for some, especially if they do not have much work experience, or, have too much to summarize in a 1-2 page document

One tip I would recommend doing is being careful with resume templates. While some applications offer resume templates for people to use, it becomes overused or too well-known that employers can notice whether or not your resume was inspired or created through a template (which make you seem unprofessional or unoriginal)

Remember to keep it short and summarize each work experience into 1-2 bullet points. Also remember that you can use the job description of the position you worked for to describe your responsibilities and tasks in a more professional manner

All CUNY schools have resume-building workshops and/or career services and fairs for you, as a prospective college student, to utilize and enjoy!

These services provided to you are beneficial as they are sometimes aligned with your degree-pathway and goals. It also allows you an opportunity to network with others around you
