Use Office Application software tools to create professional documents. (C2, PLO3)

Part 1: Resume

A resume is a document commonly used in the hiring process. It includes information about your background and qualifications and should communicate the most important, relevant information about you to employers in a clear, easy-to-read format. The goal is to quickly communicate why you are uniquely qualified for the position based on your skills and experiences.

You are required to use Ms Word to create a resume that will get noticed by employers. You can follow a few simple steps and best practices with the help of Ms Word to enhance the look of the resume.

The resume must have your photo and appropriate design on the layout.

Your resume should have:

Decide which type of rsum template do you want to use.

Create a Header.

Provide your personal details.

Write a Summary.

List Your Experiences or Skills.

List Your Activities.

List Your Education.

List Any Awards You've Won and When You Won Them.

List Your Personal Interests.

Part 2: Cover letter

Prepare a cover letter to accompany your resume. A cover letter is a document sent with your resume to provide additional information on your skills and experience.

The letter provides detailed information on why you are qualified for the job you are applying for. Dont simply repeat whats on your resume -- rather, include specific information on why youre a strong match for the employers job requirements. Think of your cover letter as a sales pitch that will market your credentials and help you get the interview. As such, you want to make sure your cover letter makes the best impression on the person who is reviewing it.

A cover letter is often your earliest written contact with a potential employer, creating a critical first impression. Something that might seem like a small error, like a typo, can get your application immediately knocked off the list. On the other hand, even if your cover letter is error-free and perfectly written if it is generic (and makes no reference to the company, or to any specifics in the job description) it is also likely to be rejected by a hiring manager.

Effective cover letters explain the reasons for your interest in the specific organization and identify your most relevant skills or experiences. Determine relevance by carefully reading the job description, evaluating the skills required, and matching them to your own skills.
