Course Description
Have you worked on your tech resume? Are you ready to send it to recruiters? Before you do, take a step back. It might not be ready quite just yet. It’s critical to do a final check before you send it. After all, your resume reflects on you as a professional; what if you send it and there’s a typo you’ve missed? A date you’ve gotten backwards? The recruiter will see that and prioritize other candidates instead.
In these lessons on Finalizing Your Tech Resume, you’ll learn how to improve your chances of being hired. We’ll discuss reviewing and revising your tech resume so that it’s in the best shape before you send it out.

We’ll talk about how tailoring your online presence will complement your resume and improve your odds of being invited to an interview.
