  7. Resume Advice (per Carol Berg) ● The Resume – Part Two of the First Interview Format not as important as “telling your story” Resume should support the claims you have made in your letter Include clarifying comments that highlight the relevance of particular aspects of your education and experience Do not include information about your marital status, religious affiliation, hobbies, and/or travel experiences Avoid extensive lists Always tell the truth ● The Application Form – Part Three of the First Interview Complete the entire application Focus on accuracy, clarity, and neatness If letters of recommendation are required, make be sure they are current and carefully select the authors Optional – please include one letter of reference with your application. The BROCHURE is critical – study it! If you received dispensation to apply for a job other than the brochure we provided, include a copy of the brochure with your application.  Application Packet Rubric ● Cover Letter – The First Interview Thoughtfully developed Effective paragraphing Articulate sentences Address the “fit” you perceive between your background and experience and the specific job for which you are applying Show an understanding of not only the position, but of the district (websites should be visited for material pertinent to fiscal issues) Do not include extraneous material Opening sentence – be clear, fluid, and identify the job State the topic or subject of each paragraph Sentences need to be articulate
