Resume and Cover Letter Writing
Your resume and cover letter are unique personal marketing tools that emphasize to an employer why you would be a good fit for a position based on your skills and accomplishments.
A resume is one of the first things an employer will look at, so having your resume at its best can increase your chances of moving forward in the hiring process.
A cover letter allows you to share who you are as a person, highlighting your qualifications and showcasing your interest/motivation.
Interviewing
When you reach the interview stage in the hiring process, it鈥檚 time to both market your skills and experience and to evaluate if the organization is a good opportunity for you.
Professional Social Media Practices
