Helping a 2GreenEnergy Intern Create His Resume’
Here’s a blurb I just wrote for one of our interns, Louis de St. Phalle, for inclusion in his resume’. I never embellish, if that means saying something that isn’t true, but I try to choose words that communicate the truth in the most forceful way possible:
Content creation in renewable energy and cleantech more generally. Conducted penetrating research and used it to write numerous, detailed articles on the ever-evolving technologies, economic conditions, and political landscape that define our civilization’s appetite for clean energy and the phasing out of fossil fuels.
2GreenEnergy owner/editor Craig Shields credits this effort with both an increase in traffic to the website and an improved SEO ranking. Shields reports: “There is no doubt in my mind that Louis’ work has been effective in reaching a great number of readers. Since the inception of the website in 2009, we’ve had at least 10 or 12 interns, of whom Louis has proven to be far the most sophisticated to date. He’s bright and friendly, which facilitates our working relationship. But more to the point, he has a fantastic command of the language and a precise understanding of subtle points in this industry that are totally lost on most people.”
