During this class, you will be asked to maintain an electronic portfolio where your Job Search Plan, class exercises, resume, cover letter and other assignments will be stored both for your further use during your job search and to be turned in to fulfill the requirements for the course.

The Portfolio should take the form of a document or series of documents created in Microsoft Word or another common word processing program. If you will not be using Word, the default program on all the College computers, please email me early in the class to ask if your word processor will be compatible with mine.

The following documents must be developed in your Portfolio during the semester:

· A Job Search Plan which will describe in detail how you intend to go about finding your job and set a timeline for completion of each part of the plan.

· Completed  Activities from class sessions

· A copy of your final resume, cover letter, and thank-you letter

· Interview Preparation materials

Your Portfolio must be submitted three times during the semester:

· After Class Four when the early planning is completed

· After Class Nine when your job search research, resume, cover letter and thank you letter will be completed.

· At the end of the course when your Job Search Plan is completed.

· As an attachment to an email to me at craigkm@hiram.edu. Not sure how to send an attachment? See Technical Help from the menu.

· Or on a disk dropped off in the Career Center.
