#recruiting #resume-building #career-development
Would I be better off taking a student teaching position over the summer, or babysitting and continuing my other not school major related job for an Elementary Education Major?
I applied for a student teaching summer position with the local school district, when a former employer offered me a position to Baby sit their 3 children over the summer. I will be entering my Junior Year in College, and while I would like to get some good experiences on my resume, the babysitting pays more, the hours are better, and it is more flexible. It will also allow me to maintain my position at a local gym, which will give me a free membership. #resume-building #elementary-education #education

I asked a high school senior at my school the other day to show me her resume because she's one of the best students at my school.

She had almost 5 pages of numerous clubs, programs, organizations, awards, and other experiences that she had been a part of in four years. Her resume was absolutely amazing, and it made me feel like I had done absolutely nothing in comparison. It also made me wonder what do I need to make sure that I have a really good resume, and how much is enough? How much is too much?
