There are two things you will be asked to do:
1. You will be asked to put together a resume for yourself in a structure that adheres to professional standards in the journalism and communications industries, as laid out in earlier related blog posts (putting media experience ahead of other experience, putting education lower in the resume, keeping the resume at no longer than one page, etc.).
2. You will be asked to write a cover letter for yourself in a structure that adheres to professional standards in the journalism and communications industries, as laid out in earlier blog posts (written in more of a narrative voice moreso that a simple businesslike form, etc.).
We'll start working on these with the remainder of our class time today, and then finish them on our own time. Each should be in a separate Word document. Your deadline is no later than 9 a.m. Monday, Nov. 20 by email to omars@msu.edu.
