tinfoil 0 #1 January 16, 2003 Howdy, I'm about to email my resume to apply for a job, but I'm not sure what to put for the cover letter. Oh, and this is for a job to work at a porn store BTW. Should I just start to rant about what an expert on porn I am? Or give a detailed description of my extensive pornography collection (which, sadly, doesn't exist). I don't know, I'm at a bit of a loss for this. “- - Sumo is the greatest of sports. It has power, grace, speed and cluture.

lawrocket 3 #2 January 16, 2003 Remember: The resume and cover letter are not simply objective analyses of your assets. Your job is to sell yourself. Since it's for a porn store job, I guess I could say that you should use the cover letter to "toot your own horn." - My wife is hotter than your wife.

BoobieCootie 0 #3 January 16, 2003 I dunno about helping you there, but I'd worry about your next job hunt - how are you going to explain your job responsiblities, experience and achievements in the adult entertainment industry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tinfoil 0 #5 January 16, 2003 I'm not too concerned on how it will look on my resume, not sure if I'll even put it on. I just want to work at a porn store because I need something to do. And its a nice chain store to, except most of the people who work their seem to be real SOB's. But here's what I have thus far, any comments? To whom it may concern, I am currently a full time student who is actively seeking part time employment in one of the world’s most exciting industries. I am confident that I can contribute to the success of Adults only Video. I can offer you following experience: • An enthusiastic person who currently balances a full time course load and track club membership • Excellent customer service skills, and a pleasant telephone manner • Several years of service in effectively dealing with the public • Cashiering experience with no balancing problems • Immediate part time availability and full time availability as of May • Own transportation In addition, it might be of interest to you to know that I am fully certified in CPR and First Aid. I would welcome the opportunity to meet with you and explain further how I can contribute to your success. Sincerely, Chris Steers “- - Sumo is the greatest of sports.

skymama 37 #7 January 16, 2003 Hmm...since it's a cover letter, I would take out the bullets and make it into paragraphs only.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
