Preparing for a Job Application

• Resume: An effective resume summarizes your skills, education, and work experience. It's an employer's first window into who you are. Here is a Resume Guide

• Cover Letter: A cover letter highlights your qualifications and why you believe you are a good fit for the specific job you are applying for. Not all jobs will require one, but most likely will. Even if they don't, it's always a good idea to submit one.

• References: These will act as your advocates. These are people in your life who you know can vouch for you and your skills.
