Truly Useful Resume Advice
I found this video that is made specifically for college students. Thomas Frank gives concrete and specific advice; he even breaks it down into 5 main areas of concern (and he includes semi-witty pop-culture references).
Here's a page that is directly about writing a resume in the broad field of art-related employment. For this assignment, I think it's best to think about the Plant Life in the City Fellowship as a kind of part-time or contract work. You're not exactly applying for a "standard" job, yet the skills and talents are roughly the same.
A previous blogpost by Cara Ober at B'more Art gave advice about artist's statements. Here is her take on artist's resumes.
Lastly, here are a bunch of unsorted examples. What works? What doesn't? What would you like to emulate for designing/writing your resume? What would you like to avoid?
