Need help writing my resume..
You would think I would remember how to do this...

Sadly no. Anyone have a good link to a resume writing site or some such?

5. advice & resources
from that homepage, you can follow links to 'advice & resources', then 'career advice' section has many (FREE) articles on interviewing, resume writing, expert advice, advertising yourself, and more.

good luck!

6. Take a trip to the Library
There are lots of good resume books, such as the "Knock 'em Dead" and "Dummies" books.

7. I have that problem too
None of the "example" resumes are anywhere appropriate for me so I don't feel like I can follow their formula. I do have a resume but I am thinking about contacting my college alma mater career center for help.
