Resume Writing for Engineers
Study Guide 2 of 10


Resume Fundamentals

A resume is a one-page marketing document for yourself. Its purpose is to earn an interview — nothing
more, nothing less. It must be clear, concise, and tailored.



Standard Engineering Resume Sections

1. Contact Information (name, phone, email, LinkedIn, city/state)
2. Education (GPA if ≥ 3.0, relevant coursework optional)
3. Skills (software, programming languages, lab equipment)
4. Experience (internships, research, part-time jobs)
5. Projects (class, personal, or team projects)
6. Activities / Leadership (clubs, sports, volunteering)



The STAR Format for Bullet Points

Each resume bullet should describe what you did and the impact. Use the STAR model:
Element Description

Situation The context or challenge you faced

Task Your responsibility or role

Action What you specifically did
