So I just graduated and I want to update my resume. Do I need to change anything to say I graduated? May 2012 was listed, should I remove that? Or change it to "Graduated: May 2012"? Or do something else?
Also, what should I do about GPA? Should I remove it now or leave it? I graduated with a 3.4 cumulative. Not sure how long that needs to stay.
I start work in July.. should I state that I am starting work in July? Or just leave it until I actually start?
Thanks!

I'd just put "Graduated May 2012." Also, if you're starting work in July, what's the need to add that job on your resume right now?
Leave GPA. Add date. If it says XXXX - May 2012, and it is June 2012, assume people are intelligent enough to deduce June is after May
Before and After Graduation, Resume Changes? (Originally Posted: 09/02/2014)
Any major differences in proper formatting and/or wording once you have graduated other than your graduation date as, "Expected May 2014" --> "Class of 2014."
If you are willing to critique my resume privately, please post or message me, and I will be sure to follow up.
Thank you for your time.
