So you're looking for a job
This is a short book published by the Canadian government, the reason that I published it here because it has practical ways to make your resume or C.V., so though it was published in 1982, it contains valuable information for general Job seekers.
"So You're Looking for a Job" has been prepared to help you further your career in the Ontario Public Service. Special thanks are extended to Mary Bruce, former Women's Coordinator for the Ministry of Agriculture and Food for getting this publication started; Zelda Abramson, Experience '79 student, for putting it all together, the Information Services Branch of the Ministry of the Environment for their art contribution, and Callie Bell, the present Women's Coordinator for the Ministry of Agriculture and Food for getting it published.THE APPLICATION OR COVERING LETTER 2
