1 areer Services Office Legal Resumes & over Letters for Alumnae/i There is no single way to set up a resume. Of the many acceptable resume formats, you will need to determine which format best represents you and your experience. However, there are some general rules you should keep in mind: 1. Prospective employers typically take seconds to initially review your resume; make sure your resume is arranged so that a good impression can be gained by a quick glance. Judicious use of white space will allow the reader s eyes to be drawn to key words; don t try to fit so much on a page that it becomes difficult to read. Use of bullets is a good way to draw attention to your various accomplishments. 2. Use of phrases, not complete sentences is preferable (avoid the use of personal pronouns). 3. Use active verbs (e.g. developed, researched, managed, administered, etc.), not passive verbs 4. Limit your resume to one page unless you have extensive or unusual education and experience; if you have practiced for several years or more, a two page resume may be necessary. If your resume is two pages, include your name and Page 2 on the second page, at the top right. 5. Stick with an easy-to-read font. Using less than a 10 pt. font is not recommended. 6. Be sure to spell check your resume and read it backwards to catch any and all mistakes. 7. Test-market your resume before printing it. Ask others to read it and get feedback on the impression it makes. It is extremely helpful to have someone who does not know you well read it. ONTENT ontact Information: This information should be placed prominently at the top of your resume. If you use a cell phone number as a method of contact, make sure you only answer unknown numbers when you are in a quiet place. The inclusion of an address is recommended; your home would be best (be careful about using a work ; many employers monitor employee ). Objectives and Personal Information: No statement of objective is necessary on legal resumes. You can better address your objectives in a cover letter or at an interview. Admission to the Bar: If you have recently passed a state bar exam and/or have multiple state bar admissions, you may want to indicate this on your resume. However, it is not essential that this category be included; most legal employers assume that you are licensed or will be shortly (if they hire you, many employers will also verify your bar membership). If you choose to include a bar admission section, you can place it at the top of your resume, below the name/address heading and before your first substantive category, or towards the bottom, after Education/Experience. Although this section does not necessarily need a heading some people include one such as: Bar Admissions or Bar Membership. Examples of how bar admission can be stated under the chosen heading are: Awaiting Admission to Illinois State Bar Passed Illinois Bar Exam, July 2009 State of Illinois, November 2009 United States District ourt, Northern District of Illinois, 2008 Member, Illinois State Bar
2 Education vs. Legal/Professional Work Experience: If you have practiced for less than two years, it is advisable to list Education as the first substantive category on your resume. After two years, Legal Experience should become your first category and Education should be moved to the end of your resume. Whichever category you list first, the entries within it should be listed in reverse chronological order with your most recent employment (or degree granting institution) first. In describing your jobs, be as explicit as you are able while still being concise. If you are a trial attorney, you may want to list the number of jury or bench trials you have tried, an argument before the Supreme ourt or any other significant experience. If a transactional attorney, perhaps you ll want to mention a particularly significant or complex deal, negotiation or contract (this does not necessarily mean mentioning a client name). Use action words as much as possible to describe your accomplishments (e.g., supervised, interviewed, analyzed, researched, drafted, organized.) This is preferable to saying "responsibilities included..." or using the word "duties." List substantive areas of law, types of legal documents which you have drafted and responsibilities which you have been given. ontinue this section with any previous legal employment; if you are a relatively inexperienced attorney, you will want to include all jobs that are relevant to your legal training including volunteer and extern positions. If you are responding to an advertisement that requires your salary history, you should address the issue in your cover letter Other Professional Experience: These positions should be outlined in exactly the same manner as legal experiences. Elaborate on the skills which you developed which overlap into the legal field. Tasks may or may not translate from career to career but skills will always be transferable. Educational Background: If you have not practiced long and are beginning your resume with Education you will want to include law school related information, such as grades/class rank; journal membership; Moot ourt; externships; merit scholarships; student organization membership or office; etc. If you have been out of school for two to three years or more, you can limit the information provided, but by all means do include things like graduating with honors, Law Review, Moot ourt, ertificate Programs (if relevant to your current job search), etc. Publications: List them in a separate Publications section. Be sure to use correct citations. Also, be aware that if you list an article, a prospective interviewer may read it. If you include publications, and it has been awhile since you have read any of them yourself, be sure to read them before embarking on any interviews. If you have a significant number of publications and they take up too much room on your resume, create a separate addendum to your resume. Professional Associations: Membership and offices held in professional organizations should be listed in this separate category. Always mention legal organizations first. Special Skills/Language Proficiency/Interests/Other Activities: If you have foreign language proficiency, unusual or interesting hobbies, athletic abilities, and/or there are community organizations in which you actively participate, you may want to include this on your resume. These items can be listed consecutively so that they do not take up more than a couple of lines. References: On your resume, the phrase, References Available Upon Request, is not necessary. Rather, references should be listed on a separate sheet of paper and contain the name and contact information of two to three professional references who can speak about your abilities & skills,
3 experiences, professionalism, etc. You should bring your list of references with you to each interview so that you are ready if the interviewer requests them. onfidentiality: It is appropriate to include a statement, at the very bottom of your resume, requesting that a prospective employer not contact a current employer. "onfidentiality with regard to present employer requested" or It is requested that current employer not be contacted." The same request should also be included in the cover letter which is sent with your resume. SANNABLE RESUMES Electronic applicant tracking is a new technology being used by some in the recruiting industry. Although some legal employers have not yet keyed into this type of recruiting, others, such as large corporations and headhunters, have. Seeking candidates through on-line resume posting services is one of their sourcing methods. When creating a scannable resume, the following tips will help you to create the ideal resume which can be read by a computer. Use white 8 2 x 11 paper, black ink Provide a laser printed, clean original Do not fold, staple or paperclip Use standard typefaces such as Arial, Helvetica, Futura, Univers, Times, Optima Use a font size of 12 to 14 points Don=t condense spacing between letters Use boldface type and/or all capital letters for section headings. Be sure that letters do not touch each other Avoid fancy treatments such as italics, underline, shadows, and reverses No pictures/graphics Maximum of two pages Avoid vertical and horizontal lines, graphics and boxes Avoid two column format or resumes that look like newspaper columns Place your name at the top of each page Use standard address format below your name In searching their candidate database, employers may look for people either by name, title, or specific skills and experience and they may use Akey such as lawyer, manager, employment law, writer, insurance, claims, negotiations, etc. The key words they use in this type of search tend to be nouns rather than verbs, so use nouns to describe your qualifications. Also, describe your work experience with concrete words rather than vague descriptions. Increase your list of key words by including specifics. You can find more information on electronic resumes in books like areerxroads: The Directory to Job, Resume and areer Management Sites on the Web by Gerry rispin and Mark Mehler. FUNTIONAL RESUMES Although the chronological resume discussed in this handout is the type most commonly used in the legal profession, a functional resume can work well if you are switching careers or have been out of the workforce for awhile. In a functional resume, employers and employment dates are generally downplayed and the skills and achievements that are relevant and will transfer to the position (or industry) you re applying to are highlighted and used as resume section headings. Examples of skills that a lawyer could highlight when moving to another industry might be Management skills, Training skills, ounseling/advising skills, and Writing skills. Headings on a functional resume are always tailored to a specific position or industry, as well dependent on an individual s actual work experiences and, therefore, will vary greatly from individual to individual.
4 You should still show your employment history on a functional resume but you should list it toward the bottom after your skills and achievement sections and include only employer name, job title, and years of employment. For more information about functional resumes, please see the references listed below. SAMPLE RESUMES Attached are samples of different resumes that may prove helpful to you as you plan your resume.

11 areer Services Office over Letters For your cover letter to be effective, you need the following three key ingredients: Investigation. Research the firm or organization. Utilize the multitude of resources available in the areer Services Office and on-line to increase your knowledge of the employer. Individuality. Use the information you obtained about the employer to tailor your background and interests to the employer s needs and specific law practice. Avoid the pitfall of sharing what you hope to personally gain from working with the firm. Instead, put yourself in the place of the employer and ask the pertinent question: What do I have to offer that would be of benefit to the firm or organization? Impeccable writing. Demonstrate your strong writing skills by conveying your thoughts in comprehensible sentences, written with correct grammar and spelling. The ideal cover letter is no longer than one page and consists of 3-4 paragraphs: introduction, body, and closing. It should be formatted like a business letter and printed on the paper you re using for your resume. Address your letter to the person in charge of hiring. If you do not know who this person is, call the firm or organization and ask for his/her name. Make sure that the spelling of the individual s name, firm or organization and job title are correct. FIRST PARAGRAPH: THE INTRODUTION The goal of the first paragraph of the cover letter is to capture the employer s attention, giving him/her reason to continue reading the remainder of your letter. Within this paragraph, you need to state your purpose for writing to the employer; and generally, there are three situations that would prompt you to send a resume and a cover letter to an employer. Referral. If you obtained the employer s name through a contact who is well known to the employer or to the organization, mention his/her name in the first paragraph. Mr. John Smith recommended that I contact you about an associate position in the litigation department of your firm. Make sure, however, that your contact gives you permission to use his/her name in your letter before sending it to the prospective employer. Job Posting/Advertisement. When responding to a job posting or advertisement, indicate what position you are seeking and from where you found out about the opening. I am a recent graduate of hicago-kent ollege of Law and I am interested in the entry level attorney position that was posted on the areer Services web site. Targeted Mailing. If you were not recommended by a contact, and you did not find out about a position through a posting, then you are sending an unsolicited resume and cover letter to an employer for whom you d like to work. In this first paragraph, you should introduce yourself as a recent graduate or experienced attorney and indicate the type of position for which you are applying. Most often, the best opening statement for a cover letter of this sort mentions your strongest qualification or the one most related to the
12 prospective employer. Here, research plays an even greater role in the effectiveness of the cover letter than in the previous two situations. I am a recent graduate of hicago-kent ollege of Law with a strong interest and extensive academic training in labor law. I am eager to put my skills to work and I would like to pursue an entry level attorney position at your firm. - or, better yet - After reading the July issue of the ABA Journal I was very intrigued by your recent work with the Teamsters Union Local 705. I am a recent graduate of hicago-kent ollege of Law where I obtained a ertificate in the Labor and Employment Program. I have a strong interest in labor issues and I would welcome the opportunity to work with you as an entry level attorney. BODY PARAGRAPH(S): THE MEAT AND POTATOES The second paragraph (and third, if necessary) reveals information about yourself and how it relates to the needs of the employer. Your research of the firm or organization is significant at this point for it provides you with a means to link your background to the law practice. You can highlight and elaborate on things mentioned in your resume, or discuss experiences that are more suitable for a cover letter than a resume, such as your plans to move to the city in which the employer is located or high grades in a particular course. Keep in mind that employers are looking for the quality, not necessarily the quantity, of your background, so choose the experience and background you will discuss with care. While writing the body of the cover letter, it is important to support your statements with examples. For instance, instead of simply stating, I have excellent communication skills, you could elaborate with, As a manager for AB Ltd., I prepared instructional materials and facilitated 3-day training workshops for groups of 5 to 50 supervisors. Provide enough evidence to illustrate your statement, but avoid the temptation to reiterate every entry on your resume. LAST PARAGRAPH: THE LOSING The last paragraph is a direct request for a personal interview. I would be pleased to discuss further details of my legal background in a personal interview. - or - I would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you and discuss how my background might fit your needs. Make it easy for the employer to schedule a meeting. FOLLOW UP Additional correspondence whether mailed, ed or faxed should be followed up with a phone call to ensure that the employer received your materials. If you have not heard from the employer after waiting two weeks for a response, you may write to him/her again and repeat your interest, asking if you can provide additional information. Sometimes, following up with a phone call is more successful. all the person to whom you wrote and ask him/her if you can meet and talk about your qualifications and how they might contribute to the firm or organization. ADDITIONAL ORRESPONDENE The most important letter to send is a thank you letter after an interview. The thank you letter provides you with the opportunity to express your appreciation for the time and information given to you during your interview and to reiterate your interest in the firm or organization. See the handout entitled Interviewing & Thank You Notes for more guidance. The content of additional correspondence can be very short, but should follow a business format similar to the cover letter.

Every day, millions of entrepreneurs identify problems and find solutions — or they uncover ways to do things better. They may be emerging entrepreneurs at startups or seasoned entrepreneurs leading established companies.
During the past year, I've had the opportunity to talk to dozens of entrepreneurs throughout Illinois and Wisconsin who are part of the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® Program in the Midwest. What I've learned is whether emerging or seasoned, they share many of the same characteristics: resilience, ingenuity and creativity.
It also became clear to me that there are three key trends facing entrepreneurs in the years to come, and they all stem from growth and disruption.
Changing strategies
Large. Small. Local. International. It doesn't matter. The key to success with any company is growth. In the "old days," if you were a startup, an initial public offering (IPO) meant you had made it. Your company had reached the pinnacle point in its lifecycle.
Today's entrepreneurs have a different mindset. An increasing number of fast-growing companies are waiting on or even passing up an IPO and, instead, exploring strategic alternatives elsewhere. At the same time, entrepreneurial leaders of large, industry-leading companies recognize the unique opportunity to expand their companies by acquiring the aforementioned fast-growers. This strategic move benefits both companies, with the acquired firm achieving the capital it wanted and the larger firm continuing to innovate and grow.
Long-term disruption is key
Disruption is something entrepreneurs know well. Many of the great entrepreneurs of our time have been laughed at and dismissed when sharing their ideas — thankfully, that didn't stop them. Who would have imagined 15 years ago that we'd be able to ask our phone for directions, and then get the right answer? I'm glad Steve Jobs did.
But it's not enough to be disruptive for a moment in time — you must think bigger and ask better questions that will pave the way for your future success. Does your innovation solve just one problem? Or might it create solutions to problems we don't yet have? Are you launching a product? Or are you developing a new product category that will disrupt business or services as we know it (a la the smartphone)?
The most successful entrepreneurs recognize that the key is to innovate at least 10 years out and create products and services that will have a lasting change on the economy and consumers, even if others can't see their vision yet.
Tech, tech and more tech
In everything we do, technology is the wraparound. Think about everything you've done today. How many tasks included some sort of technology? In your car alone, you get a warning when your tire pressure is low, you get an alert when you're drifting into the next lane, and now your phone can even locate and start up your car. Entrepreneurs are disrupting every industry using groundbreaking technology solutions.
While I've worked with a myriad of entrepreneurs, for 30 years, the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year Award has honored hundreds of them. Each a success in their own right, identifying new, pioneering ways to create long-lasting disruption and reminding us that change is the only thing we can depend on.
I look forward to even bigger and bolder ideas in the next 30 years and am eager to see what our region's most promising entrepreneurs think up next.

At Burbank City Hall, fear over the future of healthcare, the economy and state education funding factored prominently in ballot decisions for some voters.
And as in other polling stations across the region, voters were split on the issues, candidates and frustrated.
Take 29-year-old Brandon Bennett, and Jake Johnson, 28, works in television production.
For Bennett -- whose wife is a school teacher, his father superintendent -- a "yes" vote on Proposition 30 was very important.
Gov. Jerry Brown's tax plan, Prop.30, would raise more than $6 billion annually to patch the state's budget deficit.
"Schools are really suffering. More money needs to go back to school district," Bennett said.
But Johnson voted against the measure, arguing against raising taxes in a "bad economy when a lot of people are out of work."
Schools "don't have a revenue problem, they have a money management problem," he added.
Both men also differed on who would be the best president.

Gatekeeper, first introduced in OS X Mountain Lion, is a Mac security feature which prevents the user from launching potentially harmful applications. In macOS Sierra, however, Apple made some important changes to Gatekeeper that seemingly limit the choices of power users. But don't worry, Gatekeeper can still be disabled in Sierra. Here's how.
Traditionally, Gatekeeper offered three settings of increasing security: anywhere, App Store and identified developers, and App Store only. The first choice, as its name describes, allowed users to launch applications from any source, effectively disabling the Gatekeeper feature. The second choice allowed users to run apps from the Mac App Store as well as from software developers who have registered with Apple and securely sign their applications. Finally, the most secure setting limited users to running apps obtained from the Mac App Store only.
While the secure options were good ideas for less experienced Mac users, power users found Gatekeeper to be too limiting and typically sought to disable it by setting it to "Anywhere." In macOS Sierra, however, the "Anywhere" option is gone, leaving "App Store" and "App Store and identified developers" as the only two options.

Whoo's Dat?
Michael and I attended a destination wedding in Jamaica. Long after the festivities of the reception ended, I sat outside our room on the deck to breathe in the sea air and dream. That's when I noticed the fake owl perched on the tree across from me. The owners of the establishment probably thought this would be a nice addition to their guests' experience and you know it actually worked. I sat there for the longest time trying to let my mind wonder but I felt compelled to look straight ahead and into the eyes of the creature before me. The person who carved this thing took such liberty with the proportions of the eyes. I know that owls have large eyes but these were exaggerated, a caricature of an owl. It also had unnatural colors of orange, yellow, and red. It was made of wood just like those parrots that sit on perches in novelty stores. I found myself locked in a staring contest with this inanimate object and just as I thought to quit, the damn thing flew away. I was dumbstruck!
I the fool "whoo" I was could have caught ten flies with my open mouth as I sat there realizing this was indeed a real owl and one that was watching me for a very long time. This turned out to be the best part of my trip since I have never seen an owl, not even a brown one back up in the Northeast.
Six months later when I was at Barnes & Noble shopping for Christmas presents, I stumbled upon another owl, "The Little Owl," a small white one in a box. He was my present to our home for Christmas and he sits atop our stove. I stroke his head often for good luck.
At the same time I was discovering owls so was my friend Peter. He found a vintage crystal owl pitcher that sits across from his sofa. When I visit him I find myself staring at it and making wishes. Recently Peter brought home some more owls. He put the crystal owl in the bedroom and replaced it with a lamp that has a base of three brightly carved wooden owls. These guys look exactly like my buddy back in Jamiaca. Our friend Linda asked if he got it at an "owlet." Actually it was his trip with David to Maine where they shelled out two bucks for this incredible find.
Did you know that in some cultures owls are viewed as evil? Most cultures view owls as wise. This is probably how you think of an owl. The reason owls are considered wise is that for centuries they have appeared in images of the Goddess Diana, the wise huntress. Wise through association. I get that, that's why I like to hang around smart people!
Owls may not be wise but the one I saw in Jamaica was. He actually knew that the woman sitting across from him was real.

Thank you. Broker-dealers and investment advisers, including financial planners, generally perform different functions, and operate under different regulatory regimes. However, their activities sometimes overlap, causing competitive issues and investor confusion. One of these overlaps - and the one that concerns us today - is providing investment advice.
Congress recognized in 1940 that broker-dealers gave advice to their customers, but since they were already subject to regulation, Congress exempted them from the Investment Advisers Act, so long as their advice was "solely incidental to" the brokerage business and they received no special compensation for it. The concept of "solely incidental to" has never been easy to define. Special compensation, denoting advice paid for by a fee, used to serve as a convenient dividing line for determining which broker-dealers would have to comply with the Investment Advisers Act, but the development of fee-based brokerage accounts has blurred the line. At the same time, broker-dealer marketing, along with the titles their representatives use, has increased investor confusion about the duties and obligations they are owed by investment professionals.
The rule we consider today permits broker-dealers to offer fee-based accounts without having to register under the Advisers Act, with certain exceptions and provided certain disclosures are made. The notion is that fee-based accounts may be a better choice than commission-based accounts for investors with active trading, so we do not want to inhibit their appropriate use. As I understand it, the NASD expects its members to conduct initial and ongoing periodic reviews to make sure that fee-based accounts are appropriate for their customers, and the NYSE has proposed similar guidance.
Although fee-based accounts further blur the line between brokers and investment advisers, their respective regulatory regimes remain distinct. Broker-dealers are subject to a comprehensive regulatory scheme that protects investors in many ways. Generally speaking, when a broker makes a recommendation, the recommendation must be a suitable, although not necessarily the best, recommendation for the client. However, broker-dealers ordinarily do not owe their clients duties of loyalty that would require them to make up-front disclosure of each and every conflict. But, when a broker has a relationship of trust and confidence with his customer - and this depends on the facts and circumstances of each individual case - the broker does owe his customer a fiduciary duty to put the customer's interest first. This adds a layer of complexity that makes it difficult to generalize about the duties that attach to a brokerage account.
So, absent a fiduciary duty arising from a relationship of trust and confidence, a broker does not have a duty to disclose all conflicts. I note that we are currently working on a proposed form disclosing financial conflicts of interest that brokers would be required to provide to mutual fund customers at the "point of sale."
By contrast, investment advisers are always full-fledged fiduciaries. As a consequence, they owe their clients a variety of fiduciary duties, which includes a duty to disclose conflicts, financial and otherwise - at the beginning of the relationship -- and overall, a duty to put the investor's interests first.
In order to make decisions about which type of account makes the most sense for them, investors should understand the differences between brokerage and advisory accounts. As a result, in this rule, we have focused on both disclosure and clarification of "solely incidental to" to exclude discretionary accounts and financial planning services. Regarding the disclosure, it has been a challenge to reduce a complicated legal analysis of the duties attendant to brokerage and advisory accounts, which may vary depending on the governing state law and the broker's relationship with the client, into a short, succinct and accurate generic paragraph. The disclosure we originally proposed was intended to convey that fee-based brokerage accounts are not advisory accounts, and that there are differences between brokerage and advisory accounts, including the extent to which the broker has a fiduciary obligation.
Our Office of Investor Education and Assistance arranged for the language to be tested on actual investors. The results, which mirrored the findings of some consumer groups, are included in the comment file. It turns out that our proposed disclosure, while successful in alerting investors to the need to ask questions about the differences between brokerage and advisory accounts, was clearly not successful in answering these questions. Focus group participants did not appreciate the distinctions among various financial professionals. Many appeared to think that anyone with a title other than broker - whether "financial advisor" or "financial consultant" - was something more than a broker. The investors in our focus groups also lacked a clear understanding of investment advisers. Many assumed that investment advisers, financial advisers and financial consultants all provided some level of financial planning. So instead of resolving investors' issues, the language we proposed simply raised their anxiety level. As a result, we have modified the disclosure as best we can.
What I have learned from our investor outreach, comment letters and discussions in reaction to the rule proposal, is that the issues we are grappling with here do not apply only to fee-based accounts, which at this point account for less than 10 percent of the total securities held by individual investors. Investor confusion about the obligations their financial service provider owes to them also extends to commission-based accounts.
However, this rulemaking under the Advisers Act is not the appropriate vehicle for dealing with the whole problem. Therefore, I support dealing only with the fee-based account issue here and dealing with the broader issue in prompt next steps. For the short term, I support considering other alternatives - NASD or Commission rulemaking, or both -- that would address the advertising of brokerage accounts in general, not just fee-based accounts. In my view, whether the customer opens a traditional brokerage account or a fee-based account, if the broker-dealer advertises in a way that suggests, implicitly or explicitly, that a fiduciary obligation will attach to the client relationship, the broker should be held to a fiduciary standard.
For the longer term, I support considering a study that would examine the need to rationalize broker-dealer and investment adviser regulatory regimes from the perspective of retail investors.
Therefore, after much discussion and deliberation, I believe that today's final rule and the proposed next steps for further examination of the broader issues is the best way for us to proceed. I fully support this recommendation, and look forward to a prompt follow-up on the remaining issues.
I would like to thank the staff from IM, Market Reg, GC, Investor Ed, OEA and all the commissioners' offices for their hard work during the many iterations of this rulemaking.

Google has made some changes to it's reporting tools making life a lot easier for webmasters:
Google has enhanced the reporting capabilities in its Webmaster Tools to show full phrases being used in anchor text, instead of just keywords within the anchor text of links to a site, the company said on its Webmaster Central Blog last night.
Webmaster Tools previously had reports showing the top terms were included in the anchor text other sites are using to link to them. So the list would include the terms "Search," "Engine," and "Watch" when it assesed this link: Search Engine Watch.
With the new reports, the entire phrase will be shown on the list, so the previous link would show up in reports as "Search Engine Watch," which is a much more useful bit of information.
The report is available to verified webmasters who have logged into Google's Webmaster Tools, under the "Statistics" tab, in the "Page Analysis" section. The list of top 100 anchor text phrases can be viewed as a table or downloaded as a csv file.
It's useful to see what anchor text is being used to link to your site, as it provides some insight into what people think of your site, or why they are linking. The anchor text also affects Google's ranking algorithm, so since lots of other sites link to our blog with the term "SEW blog" as anchor text, that affects results for a search on [SEW blog], causing this site to show up at the top of those results.
Now, if only I understood what any of that meant.
