Campus to Career: Tips for Summer Interns

Update Your Resume: Small Edits, Big Impact

Before the memories fade, update your resume!

  • Add your internship under “Experience,” using strong action verbs and outcomes
  • Focus on your contributions, skills developed, and any tangible results
  • Remember: Even small wins (like improving a process or collaborating on a project) deserve to be highlighted!
  • Bonus: Save your updated resume version somewhere easy to access — you’ll thank yourself later this fall.
