Resume and Cover Letter Draft

Attached are my resume and cover letter. Please feel free to comment on them. Thank you.

Resume and Cover Letter Peer Editing

Attached are your cover letter and resume files with comments. Both documents were well written, with only minor changes needed in content and format. For your cover letter, I felt that there should be more emphasis on descriptive content of what you offer to the company. The key in the second paragraph is to be more persuasive, it would be to your benefit to mention specifics concerning your past jobs and responsibilities at your fraternity, and how these experiences relate to what the Dana Corporation expects from its Co-Ops. In terms of you resume, I liked your bulleted lists for description of work experiences. There was plenty of relevant and supportive information, but near the end of the resume, it seemed you ran out of room. By fixing the margins and spacing between some of the lines, your resume will look and flow better for the reader. Also consider reorganizing and moving the “Computer Skills” section to within the “Education” section, this would make this section more relevant and appropriately placed (TH p227). The “Leadership Experience” and “Activities and Honors” sections seem very similar, which can be combined. Overall, I think you are very close to having a working cover letter and resume, let me know if you have any questions on my review. Good Luck!
