EXPLANATION
Austin came to me with some really great experiences and a solid education, but he was struggling with
conveying his value on paper. As a new graduate he was concerned that his lack of “real” experience would
hinder his chances of getting a job. After some probing, I was able to draw out some unique experiences and
opportunities that Austin had during his on-the-job training. In structuring the content, I opted to present his
accomplishments under functional headings to both break up a wall of bullets and to allow for ease of
navigation.

While Austin was very passionate and animated about what he’d done during his time with True North
Aviation, he was less forthcoming about singing his own praises. To pull out his soft skills and strengths I drew
on his evaluation documents and pulled out quotes from them.

From an aesthetic perspective, Austin had come to me with a resume that was very bland, based on a
standard template. I showed him some of my previous work and he gave me carte blanche with only the
stipulation that I use his favourite color. I wanted the resume to elicit the high-tech, mechanical feel of an
avionics bay and chose to complement the red with black and grey. Furthermore, to create dimension and the
compartmentalized feel of an avionics system display, I used textboxes and quote bubbles. I chose to use a
sans-serif font to mirror the sans-serif fonts used on instrumentation panels.
