Project V

Applying for the Job



Logistically, this is the easiest of the assignments. I would like you to think of it in two parts. Part I is to identify three specific organizations (names, addresses, and contact numbers). These are the entities that you will be contacting for a job interview. Next, write and send a separate cover letter to each of the organizations, enclosing your resume and soliticing a time for the interview. Part II consists of the phone follow-ups with their personnel departments. Only in the event three organizations turn you down for the interivew should you go to the second set of three. Continue the process until you have an appointment with at least two potential employers. Be sure to schedule the interviews for after our next meeting, 4-18-11, so that we may have time to discuss interview strategies. Be sure to follow the tips given in class.
