  Pen Your Resume with A Target in Mind  
  - A Resume Writing Workshop  
  demand  
 
Having a good resume and cover letter is the first step to landing the "dream" job. For most, a resume is simply a 'record' of all the skills, talents & experiences one possesses, whether or not the information is relevant to the hirer. This method of writing a resume and cover letter is outdated in the globalised world of the 21st century. Regardless if you are moving to another job, company, industry or switching to another career, employers require a targeted resume and cover letter that addresses the requirements of the job, company and industry that one is applying to.
