For this assignment you will submit the first document to be included in your Professional Portfolio: Your resume (if you are seeking employment immediately upon graduation) or your curriculum vitae (if you are applying to graduate school). At the end of the document you should include a list of at least three references to which you intend to send a letter requesting a reference/recommendation. You can also submit your transcripts but these documents are optional.
Resume/Vitae
Update your resume (if you are seeking employment immediately upon graduation) or your curriculum vitae (if you plan to apply to graduate school). Try to tailor it to your specific goal. In other words keep the resume focused on how your skills apply to the workforce and keep the curriculum vitae focused on your academic goals.
You must also identify three potential references to which you intend to send a letter requesting a reference/recommendation with their contact information provided (name address e-mail address and/or telephone number). These can be current or former professors employers supervisors etc. For each reference specify how that person is familiar with your academic or job performance.
