Make sure the following items are included in your résumé: The scientific name for your protist, along with its phylum and a current “address" (common
ecosystem location)
A description of the job your protist is seeking and in what ecosystem the job is located.
A description of your protist's morphology (shape), an explanation of how they obtain their food,
and a description of their form of locomotion (if they have one).
Three attributes or contributions your chosen protist could make to the environment it inhabits.
Include three "references” for the prospective employer to contact to verify the attributes of your
chosen protist. These "references are not website citations. Instead, they should be a list of species in
the same phylum as your protist. Make sure to include the location each of these related protists can
be found. For example, if your protist was Mesostigma viride, Green Algae Subdivision, a reference
of that species could be Chlamydomonadales, an organism that is in the same subdivision and lives in
aquatic colonies
You may choose any format you wish for your résumé. It can follow the student example provided
but does not have to replicate it.
When researching your protist, make sure you are using educational or science-based websites. These
websites are a more reliable source of information.
You can create your résumé in any of the following ways.
Use any word processor program
