Constructing Billy Skywalker's Resume: The Final Resume



"Here you go Billy," Bobby Solo told his friend. "This resume should get you an interview with the Rebel Alliance for that sales position and make it clear you stand apart from your brother Luke."


"Thanks buddy," Skywalker told his friend. "When I get this job maybe we can buy you a fancy ship like your brother's."


"Nah. Who would want that piece of junk unless you're my brother or that gambler who runs Cloud City. Good luck applying! Drinks are on you when you get the job!"

One thing I'd like to point out in the above resume is that the dates of employment would normally be pushed out to the right margin, however the shortcomings of this blog's program don't allow that to appear.
Thanks for reading this series!
