Constructing Your Resume and Cover Letter

Constructing Your Resume and Cover Letter

This course walks students through building a resume and cover letter that employers actually respond to. You will draft and refine a master resume, learn to tailor it to specific jobs, and apply formatting conventions that keep it readable. The second half covers the cover letter: how to frame your career narrative, what to include and leave out, and how to get useful feedback before you send it.
