Employment Resources - Fort Wayne

Writing resumes can be tricky. You want them to be succinct enough that potential employers can get a full impression of you in just a quick glance. You need to be picky about what information you include or leave out, and make sure that the resume is tailored to the job for which you are applying.

Cover letters are your chance to go into detail about the information on your resume and explain to potential employers how your skills fit their needs. It is very important to read job descriptions thoroughly before writing your cover letter, and to continuously re-check the description to make sure you are covering all of the requirements.

The resources on this page will help you organize your cover letters and resumes, and give you tips for knowing which information to include, and what is best left out.
