I’m writing my first resume for full time employment.
When I was looking for part-time I had an “objective” stating I’d like to work evenings and weekends. I’m not looking for a job in any specific field, I just need one asap. Probably sales or waitressing (if I end up writing an objective, I don’t want to use either specifically, so what could I use to generalize? “To obtain a full time job that enables me…?” to what?)

In my resume template, my name/address/phone number are down the side in a coloured bar, so my objective was first before my job experience/qualifications. I don’t want to just jump right into my qualifications at the top of the page, so what could I put to replace my objective?

It has to be on something that I found to be in interesting. And something academic like I could have learned about it in a class.

Here are my thoughts:

1. Study skills and emotional intelligence. I will basically write study tips and explain how emotional intelligence and delayed gratification has a bigger impact than someones IQ whenever someone has a test coming up.

2. The 5 myths of love.I am taking most of my information on the lecture notes my psychology teacher gave me last semester. (Is that legal or did I need her pemission) I will explain what they are and how it really is. Ex: Myth#1 Love is a feeling you fall into. This is a myth because love is an action not an emotion.

I’m going into 8th grade, and got back from three weeks participating in a Duke TiP program. I loved it, and when I got back my mom asked me about doing an e-studies as well. I love to write, and am a good writer, so I was thinking about doing either the fiction writing course (which would be more fun and easier) or the academic writing course (which would be harder but more useful, and offered rarely). I’m leaning towards the latter, but I don’t know if I’m going to have enough time with school, soccer, music and homework.

Should I do it? Has anyone here done it before?

I have to write a letter to the Executive Director of my college’s scholarship department requesting that my scholarship be reinstated. I had to leave school when my dad was diagnosed with a fatal brain tumor and they revoked my scholarship due to my absence. The letter needs to explain my reason for my absence, when I plan to return, and request that, upon my reentry, I be allow to resume my scholarship. What format should I use for such a letter?

or if anyone has a SUCCESSFUL letter they could email me. I obviously wouldnt copy it. i have my own information that i want to put in there.

Thank you!

What exactly should an Executive Resume Cost?

Firstly, realize that the actual resume writing companies are extremely fragmented. The majority of resume writers are usually individuals operating from home. They established their very own hours, guidelines, procedures and pricing. There is a great variety in pricing structure. Normally, a competent and well-known writer itemizes the service at higher fees compared to those who are a new comer with much less in demand.

The pricing may also be based upon on area they are operating. A writer who lives in a low-cost region might cost lower than someone residing in the centre of an expensive area, even though their abilities are usually identical.
