This assignment will assess competency 6. Develop appropriate tools to find a new position in Healthcare Administration.
Directions
Conduct an online job search in Health Care Administration. Try to find at least 3 positions for which you will be qualified and that interest you.
Create a list of key words that are common to these positions. These may be particular skills (e.g. presentation, specific software programs, etc.), education, experience, or industry specific terminology.
Knowing these key words will help you tailor your resume and cover letter to the position.
Write a cover letter: Even though cover letters are generally "optional" to apply for a position, for all intents and purposes they are required if you actually want the hiring manager to look at your resume.
Select one position and write a cover letter tailored to that position. Using key words that you identified in part 1 of this assignment will help you grab the reader's attention and give your resume a better shot of being reviewed.
Highlight the key words by putting them in italics or bold (you wouldn't do this in an actual cover letter you send out; this is just for this assignment).
