The cover letter is one of the most challenging documents you may ever write: you must write about yourself without sounding selfish and self-centered. The solution to this is to explain how your values and goals align with the prospective organization's and to discuss how your experience will fulfill the job requirements. Before we get to content, however, you need to know how to format your cover letter in a professional manner..

No worries, we designed an experience just for you.

During this workshop we hope to...
- cover importance (not necessity) of a Cover Letter
- walk you through what goes in a Cover Letter
- talk through formatting and paragraph purpose
- transferableskills and how to convey
- how to tie back to company of interest and why
- guide you on how to use our office to gain experience

You should come if you…
- Are an OAMI Wolverine Pathways student!
- Want to know what experiences employers look for and how to convey it on a cover letter.
- Don’t have a lot of experience to talk about or not sure how to relate experiences to a company
- Aren’t totally sure on what the “University Career Center” does.
