Thursday & Friday, April 24 & 25, 2014

Dear Class:


Thursday and Friday
PREPARE FOR THE INTERVIEW. 
Click the link- INTERVIEW QUESTIONS.

Copy the questions into your freewrite document and answer each question in a complete sentence and thoughtfully. Be ready to share with the class one of your responses.

I will be handing out the scoring guides and we will be looking at those today.  I want you to put the information requested on the top of the paper.  I will give you points for that and you will be handed it back on interview day along with a clean copy of your resume.

WE WILL COVER RESUME FORMATTING TODAY.

  Learning Targets:

1. Students will know the basic components of an effective resume and how each is developed.
2. Students will generate their own effective personal resume focused upon their career goals, interests, experiences,  skills and abilities.
3. Students will use business language in writing one-liners to describe their skills

All resume drafts are due today.
When you finish your draft or as you complete it....
follow the Resume Building Slide Presentation 2014.

1. Print your resume today. Next class period is the last day to revise before the mock interview. 
2. Finish your first resume. 
   Write your one liners in business language complete with experience example.
   Compare your draft to the class student example on slide 21
3. You should have had a partner score your resume by now using the Resume Scoring Guide.  If not, go to an earlier day and find that document and review another student's resume.  It will be part of your grade!  Save it to the documents folder. Read the directions.
   Score your partner's work accurately and then make the revisions necessary. There should be a score for each arrow. 
4. Make revisions before you print off a draft.
