Recent law-school graduate Brandon Fuller is looking for a job with a nonprofit environmental group.
Fuller presents himself well, said Cathy Wasserman, a career coach and author of Idealist.org's Ask Cathy column.
"His résumé is neat, well organized and has no typos." she said. "However, he doesn't demonstrate that he has much environmental experience. ... "
Wasserman suggested Fuller add a section on his volunteer work: "This would allow him to include his blog, which I strongly recommend."
His education should go at the bottom, as he has a job, she said. And he should boldface his degrees, not his schools.
"Unless someone went to a very prestigious school, it is more important to emphasize what someone focused on, not where they focused on it."
