Resume Resources
Resumes
Resumes are a marketing tool, and studies show that employers spend about 15 seconds looking at each one. Therefore, a quality resume should be well organized and combine content with clarity. Please utilize the Resume Anatomy link to learn more about the basics of writing a resume and the Sample Resume link to view a sample experienced law student resume. You should consult with a career counselor for specific deviations or questions. To schedule an appointment with a counselor, contact the OCPD Front Desk at 202-274-4090, or stop by Suite 122.
