Resumes
Most people start their job search by creating resumes and sending them out. Your resume is the document that showcases your skills, experience and training or education to a prospective employer. The end result of this process is an interview and possible job offer. Getting started can be the hardest part of looking for work. Visiting an employment centre such as Career Connection can help you determine the industry you want to target, or help you identify your skills. Career Coaches recommend that job applicants write a targeted resume and cover letter to accompany each resume sent to an employer.
At Career Connection, we offer resume critique services. You can have your resume reviewed and receive feedback on how to improve the look, content and style of your resume.
If you prefer to work on your own, you can use Winway Resume Deluxe - our resume template program. This program is available in our Resource Centre. You can also use our online resources.
