Post-baccalaureate Resume Example

Resume Example

NOTE:  The spacing may be a bit off, but this is a good general example of resume.  This belongs to my former student and now current Holtzman laboratory technician.  Being just out of school, he has decided to include pertinent coursework to compensate for the lack of scientific job-related experience.
