Assuming all are true, which information about a new graduate should be included in a résumé to highlight abilities that would be valuable to an employer?

a. Prefers annual salary of $50,000 to $52,000
b. President of sky diving club
c. Fluent in American sign language
d. Plans to move to a nearby state after 1 year


ANS: C
The ability to communicate with hearing-impaired patients who use sign language would be an asset. It is better not to include salary expectations. Leisure time activities are not relevant. A résumé indicating plans to move to a nearby state after 1 year may prejudice the employer against hiring, because it costs money to orient new employees.
