Roseburg Library to host resume workshop

ROSEBURG, Ore. – Roseburg Public Library is hosting a free resume-building workshop at 4 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 29, for people who have limited experience with creating a professional resume.

Led by Christian Sala, the library’s Resource Assistance for Rural Environments (RARE) AmeriCorps member, the workshop will share tools and knowledge to help participants generate resumes that will stand out to potential employers – even if the participants have little work experience.

Learn how to highlight your skills and abilities, showcase your education and extracurricular activities, and present yourself in a professional manner.

The workshop will be interactive, giving participants the opportunity to work on resumes with Sala’s guidance. You will receive feedback and suggestions on how to improve your resume, and you will leave with a better understanding of what makes a great resume.

Sala recommends bringing a laptop computer or USB drive that contains your current resume. The library will provide laptops if necessary.

Registration is required to attend the workshop, which will be held at the library, 1409 NE Diamond Lake Blvd. To sign up, email csala@cityofroseburg.org, call 541-492-7052 or visit the library’s front desk.
