Tables and Templates to Create Resumes and Cover Letters
If you ever needed to put together a resume before, it can be time consuming for two reasons. First, you need to gather all of your important education, job, and reference information. Secondly, it takes time to decide on the formatting and style that fits your personality. When I created my first resume, MS Word did not have resume or cover letter templates. I had to use books, references, and go to a resume writing seminar to figure out what I wanted to include in my job seeking documentation! Times have certainly changed because there are so many templates to choose from now. This seminar, you will spend some time on a resume, cover letter, reference list, and an envelope.
