Writing and Role-Playing Guilde Workshop: Resumes and Staff Applications

Lotus Crystal

Welcome to the Writing and Role-playing Guild Workshops! Your host will be me, VBabe.

Each month the workshop will cover a different topic, alternating between a writing topic and a role-playing topic. The workshops will take place on the weekend in Skype and afterwards a thread with similar information will be posted in the guild, so the conversation can continue and those who couldn't make it can still benefit from the information.

All you have to do is sign-up in this thread whenever a workshop is announced and, then, show up during the scheduled time. During the Skype workshop, you'll be expected to participate in an informal exercise that gives you practice in the topic. These exercises may involve you pairing with someone for a two-minute role-play, you posting a brief example of your work in the thread afterwards, or perhaps just the good faith that you worked on the exercise on your own while the Skype workshop was going on.

So, without further ado, the second Writing and Role-playing Guild Workshop will be...

(Writing) Resumes

Sunday, July 12th, at 3:30 pm CST.

Sign-up by joining the guild and replying to the workshop sign-up thread in the guild.

P.S. This workshop will focus on resumes intended to get you a job or into a university, but there will be a special feature on staff applications for the Galaxy Cauldron forums.

You do not need to have a resume prepared prior to this workshop nor do you need any prior work experience to take this workshop. If you'd like to start putting one together, I'd recommend creating a LinkedIn profile, which will allow you to create an online resume. LinkedIn is a professional network, kind of like Facebook, and provides you great networking opportunities and allows for you to understand the types of people and jobs available in your field of interest.
