professional profile

For this discussion, you will be writing a professional profile. You will
need to find a job posting that interests you and then write the
professional profile section of your resume so that it clearly shows why
you would be a good candidate for that position. Make sure you include
strong nouns and verbs to describe yourself and the experiences and
skills you possess or plan to possess when you actually apply for a
position. You may use the job posting you identified in Module Four, or
you can focus on a new career opportunity.
Career Advising, available through the Student page, offers a wide
variety of career support information. For this discussion, you will be
focusing on the SNHU Career Resume Writing Guide Word Document.
The Resume Writing Guide breaks the resume down into five distinct
sections. For your initial post, you will be focusing on Section 2:
Professional Profile. After reading pages 9–11 of the guide, you should
have a better understanding of what should be included in your profile,
and you will have seen some examples of how it should be written.
In your response posts, provide constructive feedback on other
profiles. Consider suggestions for clearer understanding of values and
interests, stronger verbs, and more details concerning
accomplishments or skills.
To complete this assignment, review the Two-Column Discussion
Rubric.

Overview
For each discussion in this course, you will write one initial post and reply to at
least two of your peers’ posts. Discussions should not be viewed as short
papers. The discussions offer you a chance to express your own thoughts,
ask questions for clarification, and gain insight from your classmates’
responses and instructor’s guidance. Your responses should be respectful
and substantive, indicating a depth beyond “I agree” or “I disagree.”
It is important to have meaningful conversations with your peers and the
instructor. You should provide thoughtful responses and use the course
content to support your posts rather than simply giving your opinion. Be sure

to state where you are getting your information from. Although these are true
discussions, please be aware of how you are presenting yourself
professionally.
