SUMMARY:**CANCELLED** Resume & Cover Letter Workshop
DESCRIPTION:On the job market and not sure where to start? Updating your 
 resume? Want to know what recruiters are looking for? Register for this 
 interactive workshop led by Carla Vastine and Sam Sorensen to learn ways to 
 present your skills\, work and volunteer experience\, and interests 
 effectively to potential employers. You may bring hard copies of your 
 resume/cover letter or a device to work on. If you do not have access to a 
 device and would like one\, please contact Sam at 
 ssorensen@ccls.org.\n\n\nCarla Vastine worked for eight years at Career 
 Consultants Inc.\, starting as a Sales Recruiter and\, ultimately\, as 
 Branch Manager and Major Accounts Representative. While at Career 
 Consultants\, Carla collaborated with people seeking all levels of 
 employment\, from entry level positions for recent grads to higher level 
 sales management positions for experienced sales professionals. In addition 
 to matching job seekers with client companies for interviews and\, 
 ideally\, job placement\, Carla advised job seekers on how to create 
 compelling cover letters and resumes. Carla's direct contact with hiring 
 managers throughout the interview process allowed her to get an "insider's 
 view" about what companies seek in resumes and cover letters as well as in 
 interviews. The hiring manager perspective\, combined with her coursework 
 in Counseling and Master's Degree in Education\, enable Carla to 
 effectively counsel prospective job seekers about successful cover letter 
 and resume writing strategies.\n\nSam Sorensen taught college writing for 
 six years\, tutored in a university writing center for five years\, and 
 worked as an editor for online publications and freelance hire before 
 coming to Tredyffrin as the Adult Programming Coordinator. They have taught 
 previous workshops on crafting resumes and cover letters while helping job 
 seekers navigate the intimidating job-hunting landscape. Their extensive 
 background positions them as a kind and knowledgable coach for writers of 
 all skill levels. \n\nThis program fulfills PA Forward's Basic Literacy 
 through "developing foundational competency including reading\, writing\, 
 math\, job application assistance\, and overall life-skill development."
