MAKING AN IDP WITHOUT CODING
There is a variety of website designer and web hosting businesses out there. For our class, we will utilize Weebly to create our IDPs because it is a simple drag and drop interface that will allow you to create a professional looking IDP with ease.
CREATING A RESUME
A résumé is a document that sums up your skills, experiences and accomplishments so a potential employer can quickly see whether you are a good fit for a position. Before you start applying for jobs or internships, you'll need to write a résumé. Even if you're new to the workforce, a strong résumé can help you stand out in the crowd.
