After reviewing and researching the above materials and any other scholarly articles you may find in our library, choose ONE of the career categories and conduct a job search.

Make sure the career you choose for this assignment fits and make the connection between the career and the chosen subspecialty clear.
Once you have completed the job search, complete the following:
Part I:
o Complete a professional Resume applying for a job in the career field you have chosen.
Part II:
o Complete a cover letter justifying why you are the best candidate for the job.
Part III:

a. Who are your clients/colleagues?
b. What continuing education have you accomplished?
c. Location
d. What skills have you learned?
e. How has your career choice affected and shaped your personal life?
Below is a career Resume template site you may use, or you may create your own, but it must be professional.
