Summer and Other Jobs!



An article in The Dallas Morning News in the June 5, 2011, issue, “Tips for Finding a Summer Job” by Creators Syndicate on page 1J discusses ideas for students and others for finding employment in the summer.  Here are some of the article's suggestions for developing a persuasive resume:

List your accomplishments including examples of your contributions at other organizations.

Display your knowledge about the organization’s business and industry.

State your interest in a long-term position.

Include a cover letter to display your communications skills.

I think that it is very interesting that these suggestions are valid for anyone seeking a summer or permanent position. Your objective is to get an opportunity to meet the hiring individuals in person so you can present your qualifications and win the job!   

Please share with readers of this blog your suggestions for gaining summer or permanent employment.

Thanks!
