ok, i’m trying to get another job for the summer cuz the hours at The UPS Store are REALLY sucking right now. Anyway, as msot of you know, i’m going to UB and majoring in pre-law. i got a lead on a secretary posistion available at a local law office. They are asking that resume’s be emailed to them. I have never had to, nor do i kno how, to write a resume or a cover letter to go with it. so, if any of the professionals out there would like to offer up some advice and/or pointers (or jsut flat out volunteer to help me) that would be very kind of you. thank in advance! ---
