CLEAR Job Talk: LGBTQ Resume Basics

Location: Zoom

A resume is your first impression to an employer as a job-seeker, and is a vital document you should keep updated throughout your working life.

As an LGBTQ job-seeker, you may have specific questions about your resume. There are no one-size-fits-all answers to these questions, but we have a few ideas to share that may help you choose the best options for you in writing your resume.

Come learn about resume writing do’s and don’ts from career coach Kyle Inselman at our online CLEAR Job Talk about LGBTQ Resume Writing on February 6, at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET.

Come hear more about:

• The best ways to list your name, pronouns, and LGBTQ community involvement on your resume.
• The most important information to include when highlighting your work and volunteer experience.
• The possible pros and cons of coming out as LGBTQ on your resume to employers.
