✨ Video 2 in our series with the Career Engagement Center is here, helping you strengthen your career search materials. 💼

This time: how can you customize your resume for different roles and industries? 🤔

Career Educator Jesselle Hoque shares how to tailor your resume to each position, from pulling keywords, skills, and software 🔑 out of the job description to moving your most relevant experiences higher on the page. 📄

📣 October is full of different career fairs. Check out the calendar on the Career Engagements website: career.berkeley.edu/find-opportunities/career-fairs

[Video description: Career Educator Jesselle Hoque introduces herself on camera as a career educator at Berkeley Career Engagement, with on-screen captions displaying the dialogue throughout. She is asked how students can customize a resume for different roles and industries. She explains that tailoring a resume to the position is key: read the job description thoroughly and incorporate its keywords, skills, and software into your bullet points. She also advises moving your most relevant experiences higher on the resume, for example elevating a social media internship over a retail job when applying to a marketing position. She closes by wishing viewers well on their job search and inviting them to visit Berkeley Career Engagement for more support.]
