What was hadnded in:
1) Job letter
2) Resume
Process:
Job Letter
I first had to find a job ad that I was interested in. I found a job ad for Merck. I want to do pharmaceutical sales so this was perfect for me. I first researched the company and the job. I then prepared a letter letting them know that I was interested in the job, and stated a few of my strengths. The job letter took me about an hour and a half.
Resume
I found two example resumes on the internet. Dr. Fricke told me which one he thought was appropriate for a sales position. I went by the sample resume. This sample included sections such as: education, work experience, and community service. The resume took me about an hour to complete.
