Resumes and Cover Letters That Work!
Your resume is usually the first impression an employer will have of you - it needs to market your relevant skills, knowledge, and accomplishments. Employers usually only spend 30 seconds or so reviewing each resume, therefore, that first impression needs to be the one that counts. It's important to take the time to compose well written, grammatically correct, and error free resumes and cover letters. This class will step you through the process of creating effective job search correspondence. It includes writing tips and suggestions, samples, and answers to your resume and cover letter questions.
