Writing a Resumé and Cover Letter
Your resume and cover letter are same of the most important elements of your job search. A great resume represents you and shows you at your best when you have yet to step into the room for an interview.

In a tough job market, you need a resume that helps you stand out in a sea of applicants. Here are a couple of resources to help you create the best possible cover letter and resumé.
