Writing a résume as a new graduate can be challenging. Properly highlighting your skills and experience in scientific applications adds to this challenge. The NSM Alumni Association will be hosting a workshop aimed specifically at résume writing for NSM students. It will be conducted by a professional head hunter who can give you the proper advice for writing a résume in your field of study to get the position you want.

Date: Wednesday, March 25, 2009
Time: Noon
Location: GAR 201 (view map)

RSVP to inguyen@lexpharma.com by March 22, 2009 to get your résume critiqued.
