Step Seven: Printing And Mailing Your Résumé
| Printing--Print your résumé on good quality white bond
paper (at least 24# weight) available from Central Services in
Leighton or from the Career Center, 25 sheets for $1.00. The Career
Center has both Macintosh and PC's available for printing. |
| Mailing--Type the address, don't handwrite it, on a standard
white business-size envelope. |
| E-mailing--Send your cover letter and résumé as attachments
to an e-mail. Your e-mail should simply state your name and that
you have attached a résumé and cover letter in a particular format.
Offer to send them in another format if there are problems. IMPORTANT:
Be sure you don't send a virus with your résumé. If you cost a
company thousands of dollars in computer damage even before you
work there, you can bet they're not going to be eager to hire
you. |
That's it! Your résumé should be ready to be sent out! (Unless, of
course, you want to take it in to the Career Center for some more critique!)
Remember, update your résumé regularly and be sure to tailor it for
every job you apply for.
