4/18/12 Resume

Today we learned that when doing a Resume one of the most important part of it is the cover letter. It’s important because that’s the part that you write just for the job you are giving you resume to. It show that you know something about the job and showing them a little bit about yourself and why you are qualified to have the job. We learned the whole format for a cover letter and what to put in it because most people put the something every time like (I would, I could). In a cover letter you need to put things like (I will, I can) in it. There should be 3-4 paragraph and 2-3 sentences in you cover letter. The first is your hook the, Hey You! In this paragraph you should tell a story about the company and how it relates to you with vivid word pictures. In the Second paragraph is the, You Want? You address the job and tell what needs to be done. In the Third paragraph is the, I Got! Tell about your skills for the job, I’m going to get the job done and this is how you going to do it. In the Fourth paragraph is the buy it now and you should always end with that. Learn all of this for my cover letter is good because I never put a cover letter with my resumes because I never really know how to do one. I will use this advice for the future because I’m sending a resume this weekend and I hope it a good one for them to look at.
