Who am I: Resume & Cover Letter

Your resume is a one page reflection of your accomplishments over the past years from your education to your interest. This one page autobiography can in many cases make or break your opportunity of gaining a position at a particular company. As it has recently been brought to my attention most employers allot a mere 20 seconds of their time to your resume'. With that being said the development and revision of your resume' should be constant. Highlighting the most important contributions you have made to a company or institution. Although being with yourself for 21 years elicits the idea of knowing the important highlights of my career, my resume' development was frustrating. I could never, until recently conclude my life experiences into a one page reflection. while even equipped with the important resume' commandments the creation of a resume' was tedious. In the end its creation has proved beneficial and hopefully will continue my surge to the top of the totem pole.

In Connection with the resume' is the "infamous" Cover Letter. For years when asked to submit this short written intent of interest I was baffled. It never dawned on me the real importance of its accompaniment with my resume'. Today my reflection is much different, although assisted by windows templates, I realized what I was being asked. It wasn't something that could be copied and pasted from another source. A cover letter was something that just like my resume' had to be my reflection and no one else's.
