Writing Cover Letters and Other Tips for Getting an Interview! (ECLI Webinar Series 2025)

For newer librarians, your cover letter might be your first business letter. But it's also your chance to impress a potential employer. Communication skills are crucial for any job application, and your documents – including your résumé, cover letter, and references – showcase those skills. This workshop will cover what to include in a strong cover letter, what to avoid, how to track your experiences for your résumé, and how to curate your job references.
