It goes without saying that camp makes a huge difference in the lives of staff. We also know that staff develop 21st Century skills such as communication, critical thinking, collaboration, and creativity by working at camp. Yet, staff members are often challenged to translate this to a resume that will be attractive to future employers. In this webinar, camp and university professionals come together to share resume preparation tips so you can lead a compelling resume writing workshop this summer—a value-added component to staff development!
By the end of this webinar, participants will learn to:
- Identify top 5 skills employers are looking for today and name specific examples of where these skills are seen in the camp context.
- Describe common resume structures/formats that are suggested by university career services.
- Give examples of various ways to provide a resume workshop for staff during camp season.
