American actor and comedian Milton Berle, whose career spanned over 80 years, is known for this famous saying: “If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door.”
Here at Airdrie Public Library (APL), we believe in building the doors, bridges, and windows that will assist Airdronians in having the best life possible. Whether it’s through literacy programs for all ages, or through newcomer resources, or through getting trusted information for your projects and research, your public library is here to help.
Finding a new and better career is one way to open doors and opportunities, and APL has a very cool online resource that can help in taking that step. Called Cypress Resume, and available to library patrons through their free library card, this resource can help with the art of writing a great resume.
One of the problems with writing a winning resume is that you may know you’re the best person for the job, but you may not be the best at communicating that in a resume – and honestly, few of us are.
Cypress Resume is an easy-to-use online resource that helps you create a professional resume, cover letter, or reference sheet in three quick and simple steps. Users can view, download, edit, or delete any saved documents, and it’s also great for patrons with limited computer and writing skills.
The template can be easily tailored to the kind of job you desire or skillset you’re promoting, and there’s a collection of concise and professional job statements that can be added so your resume stands out to a potential employer.
Simply log into our website, go to the eResource tab, scroll down to Cypress Resume, and in a few minutes, you will have a great-looking, well-written resume.
