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.
