I know.
I was surprised as hell that I'd gotten it, as I'd never actually done anything that out of the ordinary for it. But apparently I was the only RA out of 100 who actually crafted programs around the need for preparedness (post-9/11). Meh.
Everything looks fine except for your "Activities/Awards" section at the end. It's just hanging there with 4 words. It looks totally out of place. Either place all your awards there - as the heading suggests - or just drop it. Since you've already incorporated your awards into other places, I'd say just drop it.
Those aren't all the awards I have, just the ones relating to my educational activities. I have ones that people generally recommend you include, Eagle Scout, all that.
I'm referring to your section titles "Awards/Activites" at the very bottom of the page. In it, you list "Reading, writing, running, weight-lifting." I would do without this if I were you.
Another caution I just thought of...using underlines is risky. There's a chance that a scanner or software will interpret them incorrectly and screw up your resume. Use at your own risk.

Oops, I had forgotten that I'd included "Awards" as part of that heading (haven't looked at it in a couple hours,
). Does anyone know how I should list awards? Separate bullet points? or just nix it altogether?I would suggest getting rid of the Objectives section for all the reasons everybody else has mentioned. If you really want to show your interest in a job, you can write about that stuff in a cover letter. Also, since you're still in college, I would suggest placing your education information up top.
Haven't you already listed your awards within your resume?? If you have more awards, place them there at the bottom using bullet points. If an award needs clarification or a special address, do so using the following format: "* Award 2003 - Special descriptor or highlight."Originally posted by: Orsorum

Again, I listed the awards I've gotten from the UW (general). I have other scholarships I received that I didn't have room to list, awards and activities from high school, etc.
Just wanted to give props to the people giving the constructive criticisms ... rarely would you see such helpful suggestions on ATOT =)
I'm not an expert here, but the descriptions under Experience are generally written in the 3rd person and the past tense, omitting "I". e.g. the top one would read "Transcribed and edited a variety of manuscripts in written word and LaTeX code."
That's what I thought, but seeing as how I'm still working in those jobs, I thought it would be prudent to include a first-person description. Can someone give a definite yes or no answer to this question?
