Hello Everyone:
1) Please read the files on personal branding today (see the first two files in module 2) and read
2) Business Communication Essentials chapters 13 and 14.
3) In BCE Chapter 13 please pay special attention to p. 363 and use Fig. 13.1: to write your own Story of You. You do not need to upload anything to canvas, but use this "Story of You" to boil down your headline (see headline defined in the Personal Branding Steps). Again, the headline is not required to submit, but you may want to use the headline update your LinkedIn profile summary or to use it in editing your 1 page resume under your summary.

3) I will be requesting the class to use the research link in module 2 to research companies they are interested in applying to for the cover letter and resume assignment (see module 2 for the student sample cover letter and resume and the MGMT 202: Halle Library Research Guide under "company research")
https://guides.emich.edu/company (Links to an external site and see module 2 for link).

4) You are to find a real job posting to compose your 1 page cover letter and 1 page resume (nothing is to be posted yet; Assignment is due on Sunday, 9/19 by 11:59 p.m. via module 2). Just start researching companies and possible job postings that you could apply to and target the 1 page cover letter and 1 page resume for this assignment due on Sunday, 9/19 by 11:59 p.m.

5) Also, please use the following link Salary.com to look up your salary for the job when you have your degree in hand using the following link:
https://www.salary.com/
(Nothing is to be posted to canvas on this- have the research for your private use only).

6) The next two items due are your 1 page cover letter and 1 page resume which are both to be uploaded on 9/19 by 11:59 via module 2.

Have a great day and feel free to email me at: Lbarley@emich.edu if you have questions or need clarification.

Dr. Barley
