Write it Right

Target your resume for today’s job market

Your resume is more than a list of jobs—it’s your gateway to an interview. Join career coach Lauren Barlow for an interactive workshop that demystifies modern resume writing. In this hands-on workshop, Lauren will guide you through how to update, organize, and tailor your resume to the roles you want. You’ll learn how to align your experience with job descriptions, write impact-driven bullet points, and highlight your unique value to employers. Whether you’re reentering the job market or pivoting to a new field, you’ll walk away with a resume that gets noticed.

Write it Right will take place on Wednesday, May 20, 2026, from 12:00–1:00 p.m. EST via Microsoft Teams (no Microsoft account required).

Participants will learn how to:

• Identify the keywords and skills employers are really looking for.
• Write a professional summary that connects your background to your next opportunity.
• Turn job duties into measurable achievements that show impact.
• Tailor each resume to specific job descriptions for stronger alignment.
• Use free tools like Jobscan and word clouds to check for keyword matches.
• Use strategies for implementing AI to enhance your resume, NOT write your resume.
• Avoid outdated resume practices that hold candidates back.

The registration fee for this workshop is $75.
