Resumes and Interviews

Effective job search materials are snapshots that succinctly describe your interest in a position and your education and experience.  But outstanding resumes and cover letters are more than just good writing and a generic list of education and relevant activities. Exceptional self-promotion materials are customized to the position you are applying for, provide information relevant to the position and to the employer, and show in their content that you are just as responsible, capable, conscientious, and judicious as you say you are.
