As a first year student at the University of Missouri, it is extremely important to grasp on to the endless number of opportunities that surround you. In future endeavors, it will be important to have a resume, which compiles a list of accomplishments, involvements, etc. In building up my resume this year, I want to get involved in organizations that will not only provide a leadership position for myself, but also broaden my knowledge of journalism as well. Being a Broadcast Journalism major, the classes I am currently enrolled in provide little insight into the world of journalism. That being the case, I have taken the liberty of seeking out any form of journalism organization the campus has to offer. Not only will this enrollment provide for a nice addition to my resume, but it will also enable to me to gain knowledge in areas that I have no prior experience with.
My high school resume has important elements that will be added to my most recent edition, however, perhaps the most important contribution it will make is in regards to formatting. The format of my high school resume can be used as a tool to help create my most recent copy. The previous arrangement, which was used in my high school resume, can, in a sense, be duplicated and compiled with new information in the years to come. The organizational format of a resume is critical. It must be done so in a manner that any important events are clearly highlighted for those whom it may concern to see.
Over the past few weeks I have been inspired by friends, RA’s, and parents to be involved. Not only do these groups give me the knowledge I will need for the future, but they also provide the opportunity to meet people with similar interests as myself. This is extremely important in the world of journalism. Like they say, connections are everything!
