A resume is a document used to present your backgrounds and skills, and is a solid summary of who you are and what you've accomplished. Your college resume should highlight your accomplishments during high school and can be a tremendous asset when you fill out applications, meet with an interviewer, ask for recommendations, or apply for scholarships.
