I'm hoping to move out of my current position and would like some help to make my resume look more "adult" and less "college student." I'm would like to tailor the resume specifically for an event planner/coordinator position.

The format of the resume doesn't come through with cut and paste. Can I add it as an attachment anywhere? Thank you for your help!!

Seeking a creative and intellectually challenging position in the event industry that will utilize and allow for personal/professional growth incorporating my skills, talents, personality and interests.
