Resume Building and Interview Skills for College Students

Your resume is your personal marketing tool — make it count. Highlight not just academics but also internships, workshops, leadership roles, and personal projects. Use clear formatting, action words, and avoid clutter. 

For interviews, research the company beforehand, prepare answers using the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result), and practice mock interviews with friends or mentors. Be honest, confident, and always have questions ready to ask the interviewer.

Soft skills like communication, adaptability, and problem-solving are just as important as technical knowledge.
