Assignment 1 : Job Search

A well-developed resume remains an essential element of successfully obtaining a job.

This is a multi-part assignment.

Part 1: Conduct resarch and write a 1 page paper. Instructions include:

• Online Job Search – Conduct an online job search and identify a position you might be interested in applying for.
• In your paper, discuss your online search and how you went about finding the position.
• Also, describe the job and how your background matches the requirements of the position. (Minimum length of 1 page).

[Notes: If you’re in the military and have no plans of discharging in the near future, focus on a civilian job that you would like to transition into following your military career. If your circumstances do not allow you to work, consider volunteer activities within your community that you would like to be a part of.]

Part 2: Develop and write a 1-2 page resume.

• Write a 1-2 page resume, designed to compete for the position you researched and chose in Part 1 of this assignment.
• Your finished product (research and resume) should be a total of 2-3 pages in length.

Assignment 2 : Costs

Costs are a consideration of every organization and in economically difficult times many managers may want to cut the “training budget” to save costs.

I’m sure that you’ve heard that training is always the first to go in tough times. But is that really the smartest business strategy to employ–or during economically difficult times should the “training budget be increased?

• Should Training should be cut in tough times?
• Should Training should be increased during tough times?
