    Associate attorneys work on a contract basis rather than a partnership. They’re often less experienced and may be supervised by a senior or more experienced employee. As an associate attorney, you’ll be called upon to prepare brief and case reports, build relationships with clients, and provide legal support. Your resume should emphasize transferable skills as well as any technical skills specific to your field.

    Tips to help you write your Associate Attorney resume in 2022

       Use a resume title to customize your resume

    Adding a title at the top of your resume is the easiest way to customize your resume. If you don’t have a lot of relevant experience — like if you’re at the beginning of your career or are a career changer — this will also ensure that your resume has the necessary keywords to make it past Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS).

       Use a skills section to highlight your attorney and legal skills

    If you have a long list of skills, or want to include a mixture of technical skills, techniques, and certifications, it’s a good idea to break it up into different sections. Listing skills this way allows you to include everything you want without sacrificing a hiring manager’s ability to quickly skim your resume.

    I had a clear uptick in responses after using your template. I got many compliments on it from senior hiring staff, and my resume scored way higher when I ran it through ATS resume scanners because it was more readable. Thank you!

    "My free resume review was truly eye-opening. I found out why I wasn't getting interviews and exactly what to add to get past resume screeners. I've already had way more callbacks since I used it. I recommend it to all my friends who are job searching."
