This article was contributed by a recent graduate. It details his perspective on the early resume building I mentioned in my first blog and his actual job search.  

“Motivation

In the first blog, my mom’s advice to parents was to start preparing their children’s resume as early as possible. Let’s dive in a little deeper on that topic!  Yes… “T” is my mom!

The initial concept was driven by my mom, who not only built my resume initially, but also encouraged me to continue to add my achievements as they happened. What was the result of this deliberate early action? I learned what a good resume should include and how to build on it; and I was able to see progress as I got older which served as great motivation to be a better student and public servant.

The oxford dictionary defines apt as; having a tendency to do something. Strengthen your job search and achieve excellent success by committing to these positive actions.

Well lets be APT!
