Your grade will be determined based on how well your resume takes the information provided and turns it into a resume that is adapted to Sylvia's audience, uses action verbs, appropriately includes and excludes the given information, and is organized effectively.
Of course, Sylvia's resume should be free of all grammatical and related errors.
After you've written Sylvia's resume, write a paragraph or two explaining to me what steps you took to create the resume. Did you reorder information? Use different words? Highlight or exclude certain information? Did you do research, perhaps to help you find action verbs?
