Job Search Correspondence
Often, your written correspondence is the first introduction of who you are to a job or prospective network contact. Like your resume and cover letter, it should be the best reflection of the skills that you possess and the pride that you take in your work. You should always try to be clear and succinct in all of your communications, especially when sending e-mails. The following links will give you some good information on how to write approach letters, networking letters, thank you letters, follow-up letters, letters of job acceptance, letters of job decline and e-mails.
Always feel free to contact the CCD by appointment or via email, should you want to review and proofread a job search letter prior to sending it.
