2008 Architecture Career Fair Resume Guidelines

For Career Fair 2008, the Architecture Program will be producing a résumé book to be distributed to all the architectural firms participating in the Fair. Your submission to the résumé book is optional--you do not have to submit a résumé to come to the Fair. However, firms have clearly indicated that they want to have your résumé in hand at the Fair when they talk to you. Your résumé also serves as a way for firms to contact you after the fair.

A résumé is not the same as a portfolio, but firms have also indicated that they would love to see a small portfolio of your design work. Please plan on attending the portfolio "how-to" session scheduled for 13 February if you want tips on creating or improving your portfolio.

Résumés for the resume book must be submitted electronically, in advance, and must adhere to the format standards outlined below.

DEADLINE: 5:00 P.M. 26 March 2008

HOW TO SUBMIT: Email your résumé as a MS Word document to david.morton@coa.gatech.edu
