Job Search Correspondence: Effective Strategies

Writing an effective resume requires an understanding of both format and content, as well as the needs of an employer.  By many standards, cover letters are just as important, but they can be trickier than resume writing.  In terms of making or breaking a job offer, the thank-you letter is often a critical component.  Attend this session to learn how to make your job search correspondence stand-out!

Today’s job search is all about accessing information.  Linkedin gives us unprecedented access to people, employers and opportunities.  This social media giant provides a professional platform for interacting with those in our field, ultimately expanding our contacts.  Employers benefit as well in that they’re given a look at our virtual footprint, which is critical to maintaining a professional online presence.
