Resume Revamp! @ Leadership High

During our Resume Revamp! event, volunteers worked 1:1 with high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors to get their resumes into tip-top shape for the upcoming Summer Opportunities Fair on February 24th.

At the Summer Opportunities Fair students will have the chance to meet with local organizations that are hiring students for summer internships and jobs. Please join us in wishing the students luck, though with their snazzy new resumes in hand we know they’re already one step ahead of the game.

Thank you to all our amazing volunteers who made this event so special.
