Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today we’re excited to have ex-recruiter Sadie Jones with us to talk about the most common questions we’ve been getting about resumes and cover letters.
In this episode we discuss:
- Why you should almost always stick to a one-page resume
- How and why it’s important to insert some personality into your resume
- What work experiences to include and which ones you can leave off your resume
- How to get help improving your resume
- What goes in a cover letter, and why you really DO have to write one
- Where and how to address resume gaps, bad grades, and other common hiccups
Thanks for listening!
