Unfortunately, some watercolors don't reproduce well. Your name should appear on the design sheet, ideally in the same typeface as is used on your resume. You will be limited to a one-page design sheet for the resume books. Another interesting option, quite acceptable for our resume books, is to integrate text and images on a total of two pages. For your own use, however, you may prepare an extra page or two.
Some candidates feel that the investment in sending out color prints is worthwhile.
However, do not send out a large number of unsolicited examples, or they will lose their effectiveness. Examples of resumes and design sheets in architecture and landscape architecture are available in a brief handout at Career Services. More extensive samples, including resume books from previous years, are available for you to look through at the Career Services Library , Suite 20, McNeil. You will need a resume or vita which lists your professional experience, but which also gives more academic detail and which also mentions teaching experience, if you have it. Career Services produces a separate Academic Job Search Handbook.
