Engineering Resume Book
You may choose one of the following three resume samples to create your resume. When you've selected your preferred sample, rename the document to your "Last name, First name resume.doc," then make your changes.
Resume options:
Sample 1
Sample 2
Sample 3
If you already have a resume that you want to use rather than using a template, we can only accept resumes that are: in a widely recongized font like Times New Roman, Arial, or Calibri; one page long; and in Word (.doc or .docx).
View our resume handout for more details about creating an effective resume. Also, these engineering resume buzz words may help you.
