Monster Podcast, February 3, 2006

Monster.com caught up with the author of the book The Elements of Resume Style, Scott Bennett. Among the tips for resume writers: keep the cover letter to three or four enthusiastic sentences, and don’t fill your resume with self-puffery.

To read the book, visit the Simmons Career Resource Library at P304E, One Palace Road (inside the Career Education Center) on Monday – Thursday from 8:30am – 7:00pm or Friday from 8:30am - 4:30pm.
