INTERVIEW PREPARATION

UPDATING YOUR RESUME

Your resume is an important tool that the New Jersey team will use in order to secure interviews for you. We will share your resume with school principals and hiring managers. Please review the Resume Guidelines and the Sample Resume, which you can find in the documents below, and edit your resume accordingly. We will hold Resume Workshops to review the resumes and to ensure that they are ready to share with our school partners.  Please upload your finalized resume to the Resume Folder (link in tracker) according to the deadlines shared in your cohort tab of the 2021 Onboarding Tracker.

Please note that you are expected to update your resume according to the Resume Guidelines.  As a result, your resume will look different than the one that you submitted for your TFA application.  

Once you have submitted your updated resume, please be sure to update the Onboarding Tracker.
