1Ls: Writing Successfully - Resumes & Cover Letters

October 22, 2013 • 9:20 AM • Law School 3037

Cover letters and resumes are your initial personal marketing tools in the job search, and well-crafted documents are essential in these competitive times. During this required session, career counselors will review the expected style and substance of legal resumes and cover letters, and share several ways students can make the most of both documents by highlighting their unique attributes and accomplishments. Sponsored by the Career & Professional Development Center.
