Resume Best Practices

Do you get writer's block whenever you are faced with drafting your own resume? Join Penelope Rozhkova, Security Consultant at Accenture to get some pointers on best practices. Penelope will ask questions to get the creative juices flowing and share tips on how to format and highlight what you have to offer. Penelope Rozhkova lives the Frank Sonnenberg quote, “As you climb your ladder of success, reach down and pull others along with you.” She was a founding member of two college WiCyS chapters and of the WiCyS Latina Affiliate. While Penelope holds a Masters in Education Administration, she is a career-changer as an Ivy Tech MUTC CyberAcademy graduate. Previously she worked in a K-12 setting, where she hired for district-wide roles, and then moved into a business setting, where she hired individuals for her own office staff. She has presented workshops on financial education in both corporate and non-profit settings. She has worked with individuals as well as in train-the-trainer programs to share best practices in both the fields of education and financial services, and now in cybersecurity. Although she is young in her cybersecurity career, she is well-versed in navigating group dynamics and mentoring future leaders. As an educator at heart, within cybersecurity, it is among her goals to share her previous experience as a leader while she grows her technical skills in the field, which she will undoubtedly end up teaching along the way as she reaches back to pull those up behind her.
