FFA Leaders and FFA Job Interview competitors, The WORD Company USA offers the ultimate resource for writing résumés for high-school aged students. The final section covers FFA CDE Interview Competition Preparation tips and information.
YRACC(c) For Young Adults is focused on teaching high school-aged students and early college undergrads the art of résumé writing. It is clearly not “just another résumé book.” This text is an actual instructional study course developed from the author’s three-hour group workshop presentation and more than 20 years of experience writing résumés and teaching résumé writing – an in-depth teaching tool that you will not commonly find in most available résumé writing books.
21st Century high school students graduate from school with a portfolio that virtually always includes a résumé and letters of recommendation. It is disturbing how many of those résumés could be described as pitiful! Résumé writing for high school-aged students presents special challenges that most résumé writing books on the market today do not address.
YRACC© is the classroom instructor or home-school parent’s best resource for truly teaching the skill of résumé writing. The short course includes the all-important component of pre-resume skills assessment, including worksheets. Your typical high school student has very little understanding of what skills they actually have. Once skills are assessed and information is gathered, the course enters the next step: the art of résumé writing. Each section has an end-of-section worksheet asking questions to cement the knowledge gained in that section.
A digital version of this edition for classroom use is available at www.wordcopro.com. The price is slightly higher, but the buyer has virtually unlimited use for printing worksheets; and the ability to display the lessons on-screen on a SmartBoard or projector.
Homeschool parents may wish to purchase either this edition or the light blue-colored YRACC 2, targeted to résumés for Christian workers.
