Perfect Timing

The assignment to write a resume came at just the right time. At the beginning of this semester I received some bad news about my post graduation plans. Since that time I have been trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up. After much deliberation and research I have decided to apply to graduate school. This past week I have been looking over the application process and one of the requirements is a resume and cover letter. I have always been a little unsure about resume writing until these past few weeks. I now feel confident that I can compose a professional resume. On the other hand cover letter is still a little foreign to me. I think the last time I had write a cover letter was about four years ago. Needless to say I am a little out of practice. However, I have some great resources available to help in this process. Thankfully there is a short outline of what should be included in my resume and cover letter given in the application instructions.
