In anticipation of your final Careers Port folio you will need to have a cover letter, a chronological resume and a functional resume.
A cover letter introduces you to your potential employer.
A Chronological resume is a generic resume which sums up your experience in education, volunteer work, and part time work to date. This is the resume you pass out to multiple businesses.
A Functional Resume is written with the clear purpose of applying to a specific job. The information on both resumes is essentially the same, its just organized a bit differently.
Use Dana's sample cover letter and resumes to make your own. Copy the exact format regarding margins, centering, the placing of dates and bullets. You may also use the same language style of Dana's cover letter, just make sure the information is changed to yours. The cover letter and functional resume are to target a job you would be interested in having for part time work. Use google to locate a business of our choice and to retrieve the information regarding phone numbers and the addresses that you will need.
A pdf copy of each is posted on this page for your assistance.
