	List of Employers: Based on your research, generate a target list of organizations to approach. Get the company's name, address and telephone number. Identify the name and title of the appropriate person to contact. Resume: When you know what job you are looking for, prepare a resume which describes what you can do for the employer. The resume is a written picture of you. Indicate the kinds of problems you faced, how you handled them, and the results. Letters: A cover letter accompanies a resume. Its purpose is to indicate the position for which you are applying, to address the highlights in the resume and, hopefully, lead to an interview. Write a variety of letters depending upon your needs and the circumstances: Applying for an existing job opening Exploring the possibility of employment in the future Seeking information about a particular career field or specific organization
