Tips on becoming a great writer?
I love to write, I am currently a college student trying to decide between being a journalist or a lawyer. I eventually want to be a full time fiction writer. Any advice?
Does anyone actually read cover letters?
Oh, yes. Absolutely. And what I see there is going to have a big effect on your future.Are you the applicant with the cover letter that is really an email that says, "hire me, girl"?Are you the applicant who didn't bother to submit a cover letter, even though the instructions told you to and the vacancy is for a person who will help others get jobs? Are you the applicant with a dense, 2-page cover letter, full of stories about why you hated your last employer?Are you the applicant who wrote your cover letter on your iPhone, so it's all lowercase? Or (possibly even more fun to read) it's all uppercase?Or...Are you the applicant who is a career changer, but who manages to use your cover letter to convince me that I absolutely need to give you a call?Are you the applicant who demonstrates, in just a few sentences, that you understand the needs of my company and the position, and that you know how to meet them?Are you the applicant who shows so much passion about our field that I put you on the top of the stack?Are you the applicant who shows enough charming personality for me to know that you might be a perfect match for our team?Are you the applicant who explains that, while you currently reside out of state, you are planning to move here ASAP, and are delighted to come to town for an interview?Now, of course, some recruiters don't read cover letters. That's sad. It's sad for them, because they don't get the chance to learn some important things about you. And it's sad for you, because, if you're smart, you've spent a lot of time custom-crafting your cover letter.But even if some recruiters don't read cover letters, it doesn't matter. If a cover letter is asked for, send it and make it great. Assume it will be read, and you can't go wrong.
Can You Build an Igloo in Animal Crossing?
If You Are Talking About AC (animal crossing) For The GC (game cube), No, You Yourself Cannot Make Your Own Igloo.. These Igloos Are Made Ony By Your Villagers To Play Chance-Of-Luck Games With Them.. Besides, The Igloos Last For Only About A Day.. If You Are Talking About AC:WW (animal crossing wild world) For The Nintendo DS, It Seems To Be Lacking ANY Igloo At All..
Interview for a job at a Kennel. Some advice please!?
Hello DS! Its been awhile! Anyway I am looking for some advice on an interview I have tomorrow at a boarding kennel. I am already not the best at interviews because I get really nervous! Anyway I am hoping some of you might have some advice on how I should dress for the interview and what kind of questions they might ask on it and how to answer them in relation to dogs and animals. As some of you know I am experienced with strong breeds. However I don't have an actual work experience with dogs or animals besides what I have done on my own. I think what made them interested in me is my customer service experience, work history and I wrote them a cover letter stating that dogs are one of my main interests and I want to work with K9s and start into shows etc. Anyway, general advice on how to act and present myself for this position would be great! Thanks for reading :)
Teaching ELL students?
I used to be an aide for teaching ELL, with no knowledge of spanish. The theory was that I would have better pronounciation of the language and have better usage than the teacher of spanish origin. I started with basic things like pronounciation of the letters and the sounds they make, blends, and then started using basic words that the students use every day. We did alot of usage with sentence structure and the basic types of words (nouns, verbs, adverbs, etc). We made sentences with basic subject and predicate, and then expanded them to include the other parts of speech. It's fairly easy to teach, and I could tell that I made a definate impact on the students I taught. They were young children mainly, and they learned very quickly. The classroom also had hooked on phonics that worked very well to help the children learn english. Good Luck, it's a very fulfilling experience!
