&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;Q: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span&gt;Let me cut to the chase: I&amp;#8217;m unemployed and my job search is going, in my humble opinion, rather poorly.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I&amp;#8217;m not asking you to write up and reformat my resume or cover letter for me&amp;#8212;(not that I would necessarily turn down the offer)&amp;#8212;but can I get a little help?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span&gt;Signed,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span&gt;Seeking Employment, Gainful or Otherwise&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;A:&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span&gt;I&amp;#8217;m glad to see that as part of your job search, you&amp;#8217;re seeking out ways to improve your applications.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;A solid cover letter and resume will definitely catch an employer or recruiter&amp;#8217;s eye. I once applied for the same internship two different semesters; the first time I didn&amp;#8217;t get an interview, but the second time, after fleshing out my resume and cover letter, I was offered and accepted the position. So here you go: check out Vault&amp;#8217;s &lt;span&gt;Resume and Cover Letter&lt;/span&gt; section and please let me know how it works out for you. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;Got a question? Leave it as a comment or email me at &lt;span&gt;sfriedman@vault.com&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span&gt;--Posted by Sophie Friedman, Vault Web Content Intern&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
