The Resume and Cover Letter modules is designed to provide you with essential knowledge, skills, and practical tools ​to craft your resume and cover letter. ​

​As you start this module, it's important to acknowledge the limitations of resumes and cover letters: they cannot fully capture the fullness of your experiences or how unique a person you are. The aim here is to help you navigate this challenge, providing strategies to represent yourself authentically while being mindful of the systemic biases that can exist in job screening processes.​

​You can review the materials at your own pace, engaging with the entire module or just the sections that interest you.
