Answer to Question 1

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Providing specific supporting evidence is vital, but make sure you don't go overboard with small details. Carefully select the most compelling evidence so that your message is clear and immediate, and use quantified results to support those claims.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Write your rsum using a simple and direct style. Use short, crisp phrases instead of whole sentences and focus on what your reader needs to know. Avoid using the word I, which can sound both self-involved and repetitious by the time you outline all your skills and accomplishments.
