You definitely need to create a cover letter and update your LinkedIn page.

Of all the resumes I've reviewed over the years, only ONE had a cover letter. That was thru Indeed. She really did her homework on our company as well. We offered that person a job the day she interviewed.

Anyway, enjoy your last couple of semesters and good luck with your job search!

Tony,

Thanks for the response. I agree these are some very good places to start. I'm forming a nicely worded cover letter that's straight to the point. I feel like it goes hand in hand with a resume, crazy to think that so many people forget it.

Anyways, congrats to your daughter! Hope things have been well with you.

Joshua
