*** RESUME WORKSHOP ONLINE - DESCRIPTION & REQUIREMENTS ***
NOTE: This is a 2.5 HOUR class that will take place ONLINE.
To participate, you must confirm the following:
1. You can participate using a desktop computer (Mac or PC). No smartphones or tablets.
2. You have a reliable Internet connection (Wifi at home).
3. You can successfully run this Zoom/audio test - https://zoom.us/test
* Zoom is a web conferencing provider which the Foundation will be using for its remote programming. It may require you to install some software which should be seamless.
The purpose of this workshop is to instruct SAG-AFTRA members on building a professional resume using a free word processor, Google Docs. In this two hour session, members will setup an account to use the free software, learn how the site works as well as the basic functions provided, and build their resume during the workshop. While some members may finish their resume in the workshop, most members will have about 50-80% of their resume completed. NOTE: This is not a class to update your existing resume. We will be building a new resume in this workshop.
This class is not an introduction on how to use a computer, so basic computer skills are needed. No exceptions.
Members must have the following organized on their desktop for this class:
At least 1 DIGITAL headshot
Relevant information for your resume on paper. This can be an older resume.
