Your resume page is where you can add your career highlights to let the audience know who you are and what makes you special. It’s not easy to write about yourself or your work as an artist. Yet, we all know people like stories. The more interesting the story, the more time people will spend reading, listening to, or watching them. It’s no different when viewing your resume. The story will intrigue them and make them want to know more. To add resume details, go to the My Profile Page to get started.
Add Your Artist Statement and Bio
Start with these sections, as shown below. For more information about writing an artist statement, see How to Craft a Powerful Artist Resumé.
Add Creative Highlights
Here’s where you can go deeper. Choose
the Resume/CV tab. Add the most important aspects of your creative
career, including work experience, education, special projects,
exhibitions, press, awards, and more, along with descriptions of each.
Then, organize the page by ordering sections and items. You can even
link the items to portfolios so that people can see what you did, not
just read about it. Add as many career
milestones as you want or add the important ones and attach a PDF of
your full resume. Then, share it with prospective clients or use it to
apply for jobs from our job board or other job sites across the web.
To add career highlights, use the pulldown menu to choose the section you would like to add.
You can reorder the Highlight sections as
well as the items within them by dragging them by clicking and holding
your mouse on the right side of the section and dragging it up or
down.
