To aid our colleagues in job hunting, this guide covers general and profession specific information, and emphasizes practical resources and examples. Much of the following material relates to hiring, specifically what employers are looking for inan applicant.  \nThe main authors come from academic, government, corporate, and private settings and drew from those varied personal and professional experiences to develop this resource. We thank the other contributors – Donna McCrea, Catherine Moore, and Colorado State University graduate students – who offer additional advice and examples of what job seekers should and should not do to attain success.  \nThis guide includes three sections: Tip Sheets, Resource Bibliography, and Sample Resumes.  \nTIP SHEET \\#1:  \nWhat You Should Do  \n1.

BE Concise  \n Provide a succinct list of work experiences with duties involved  \n Be brief in descriptions – lengthy paragraphs are not helpful  \n8.

Provide good references  \n Before you list a reference, know that he/she will provide a good reference and want todo so  \n Update your references – if you haven’t applied for a job in a while, make sure your reference contact information is still correct  \nWhat You Should Not Do  \n1. Don’t use questionable language  \n Eliminate slang  \n Avoid jargon (industry specific language)  \n Use terminology properly (ex. oversize is common usage to describe material larger thana standard box, rather than oversized)  \n Unless it is a special case, use formal language (ex.“do not” rather than “don’t”)  \n2. Don’t be generic  \n Tailor your resume to the position for which you are applying  \n3. Don’t exaggerate or lie  \n Never misrepresent your jobs, background or education  \n4.
