The Prezi Idea
Your presentation is one large canvas– Think of it as a picture/diagram of your talk
As you go through the presentation, you zoom in on different parts of the canvas
Parts (“frames”) can be rotated for interestPrezi animates the traveling from one frame to the next.

What is a Prezumé?A resumé in the form of a Prezi
A prezumé is NOT a self-introduction of your life story.– No baby photos!
Focus on what an employer would want to know about you.
