Question 2

Concise Language Improves the Quality of a Rsum Interviewers quickly scan a rsum in about 40 seconds to learn about a job candidate's skills, accomplishments, and attributes. Because interviewers spend such a short time reading rsums, the writing must be direct and simple.

My work included taking appointments, filing charts, answering phones, and running errands. b) I was a sales person at a hardware store and was selling windows, doors, and tools and providing other customer services. I eventually became a manager at the hardware store. My responsibilities were ordering products and supplies, as well as supervising five employees. c) I spent two summers working at the university's admission office, showing prospective students around the campus and answering phone calls and performing other clerical duties. d) I was a summer camp counselor for special children. My responsibilities included handling special activities and providing daily assistance to kids as required. Required: Rewrite the work experience section of Victor's rsum to make it more effective.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
