You will develop your own personal portfolio of professional materials for career development. In this assignment you will create a professional resume, a cover letter, and a professional LinkedIn profile page in response to the following job description for a Social Media Communications Manager. Your resume and cover letter should not exceed a single page each. You need to craft your cover letter to reflect the skills and abilities in the job description so the recruitment software program will “pick up” the key words, like search engine optimization, so that your cover letter is selected as a match. Think about how the skills you have learned in this course give you the skills and experience to be able to do this job.

LinkedIn is a professional social network- it is for professional networking only, not a social or news site. The intention is to network with like-minded professionals in the industry of your existing career but also people who could serve as useful resources for switching careers, looking to get into other fields, or friends of yours who offer services that might be useful professionally.
