Resume Article Response.

I found the concept of teaching resume building to be a genre especially interesting in the article posted up on resumes.

Often resumes are viewed as more of a tool than their very own category, however I think learning how to craft a well put-together resume is just as useful as -- if not more so than -- knowing the bio and writings of William Shakespeare, for example.

And, that's specifically why I chose to take this class for my junior comp credit.

As far as peer editing goes, I think it fits perfectly alongside integrating resume building into course curriculum. It's good to be able to understand your own resume of course, however it is  essentially a document meant purely to impress your image upon others.

In the professional world, resumes are practically like Facebook.

So by allowing other students to critique my resume, it will reveal what it predominately says about me -- what does each reader walk away with or remember about my skills and experiences after viewing my resume. I'm guessing what peers take away will be close to the same message employers will also receive.
