Career & Education Center

 

Whether you're the college-bound student looking for financial aid information, the college graduate looking for that first job, a mom re-entering the work force, a job hunter, a career changer, or an older worker, our Library's Career and Education Resource Center offers free and confidential Career Services.

 

Hours: Wednesdays, 5:00pm - 9:00pm

 

Services include:

  •  Skills Assessments

  •  Resume and Cover Letter Preparation

  •  Job Search Strategies

  •  Interviewing Techniques

  •  Career Change and Transition

  •  College and Financial Aid Information

  • To make an appointment for individual assistance, call 249-9090 and ask for Reference or email the Reference Department at falmail@yahoo.com

     

    TIPS for Cover Letters:

    • Never use a generic cover letter with only "To Whom It May Concern." With tons of work on your desk, would you be interested in such a mass mailing? You would be much more likely to read a letter that was directed to you personally, and so would human resources professionals.

    • Every resume sent by mail or fax needs a personalized cover letter even if the advertisement didn't request a cover letter.

    • Resumes sent by e-mail don't need a long cover letter. Use only a quick paragraph with three to five sentences telling your reader where you heard about the position and why your qualifications are a perfect fit for the position's requirements.
