Resume and a cover letter

An applicant’s professional history and qualifications are outlined in a resume. A cover letter is a way for the applicant to make a professional introduction to the hiring manager and demonstrate an interest in the company.

Develop a current resume and create a formal cover letter for a position for which you would like to apply. Create both the cover letter and resume using a professionally accepted format provided on the Resume-Resources website, located in the Topic Materials.

Include the following: Resume: Detail your overall education, credentials, and professional experience, such as licenses, earned degrees, certifications, professional experiences, previous positions held, membership in professional organizations, publications, and skills. Write a one-page double spaced introductory cover letter in which you explain your professional objectives, professional interests, and strengths as an applicant. Prior to submission, share your resume with a colleague and obtain feedback. Revise your resume as needed
