After completing your beauty school coursework and developing the skills that you need to succeed in this vibrant industry, you are going to be in the market for your first job. While there’s a lot that goes into landing that first coveted position, the entire process begins with writing a compelling and engaging resume.

Before you head to the NYIB Career Fair and Beauty Expo on June 7, you will want to spend some time perfecting your resume.
