 Hanover, NH: Second year student Leela Damm
recently added an unprecedented second page to her
resume. “It was an important milestone in my career,
adding that second page. That was when I knew I had
arrived,” she wrote recently in Business Week.
Ms. Damm is co-chair of 19 clubs at Tuck, and has won 12
community service awards and 59 drinking contests. She
expects to be named an Edward Tuck scholar this spring. Ms. Damm was tapped by Business Week to chronicle her adventures
at Tuck, in large part because of her various leadership
roles on campus (also, Dean Danos's top secret
"Rankings Model" determined that Ms. Damm's multi-ethnic
background would add the most diversity points and
therefore have the largest impact on Tuck's rankings).
Finally, Ms. Damm is Professor Argenti's favorite 2nd
year student.
All of this success comes with a price: the challenge of
figuring out how to record her achievements on her
resume. The biggest challenge is finding room to
include the all-important “personal interests” section.
“How will potential employers learn about my passion for
exploring national parks or my conversational ability in
French?” she wrote in Business Week.
CDO Director Richard McNulty weighed in on the change:
“We love Leela. We would recommend Leela to any
recruiter at Tuck, including Pepsi Corporation. She is a
model Tuck Student. If anyone deserves a second page,
it’s Leela.”
Sources have confirmed that Eric Den Beston is considering following Ms. Damm's
move. Tommy Cho is rumored to be drafting a 3-page resume,
mimicking Gillette's move from the Mach III to the new one with 5
blades, which leapfrogged Schick's Quattro. |
