Task 11. Read the tips for writing a resume.
Tips for Writing a Resume The resume should show the applicant’s strong communication and interpersonal skills and abilities so that he or she can create good relationship with the clients. The lawyer’s resume should be very specific and based on facts concerning your achievements. The lawyer’s resume should also portray that you can take valuable decisions while working under pressure. Personal Information. It includes the basic information like name, mailing address, telephone number and E-mail address. Resume Objective. It is a specific statement that includes your career goals and aims. It should be well written and it should not be too general.Your desire to have a well-paid job is not included in this statement, because your focus on money in your resume’s first sentence doesn’t create a good impression. Education. This section contains information in reverse chronological order such as major degree, date of graduation, universities you have attended, location of universities and any certificates achieved concerning the job you have applied for. If you graduated with honors you should include this. “A red diploma” can be called “graduated with high honors” in English. Skills. In this section you can mention your legal strengths and positive points to make your resume excellent. It may also include your language skills, computing skills, and any other talent, that relates to your job objective. When describing your language abilities, you can write “fluent English”, “native Russian”, “intermediate German”, “beginning French”. Experience. This section contains your previous work experience. List your experience starting with the most recent place of employment and work backwards. You should mention the full legal name of your previous company, your job title and job description. Provide information about your responsibilities (the most relevant to your objective). Do not use complete sentences! You’re your responsibilities in short statements, that do not include the words “my” or “I”. Always use action verbs and law related terms while constructing the lawyer’s resume. Notes: In reverse chronological order – в обратном хронологическом порядке (начиная с последнего места учебы/работы) Task 12. Write your own resume using the form below and the text above.

1.2. ВИДЫ ДЕЛОВЫХ ПИСЕМ. TYPES OF BUSINESS LETTERS Task 1. Read and translate the text about general rules of writing business letters. Text. Writing a Business Letter Heading Heading is used to convey a positive image of the company. It includes the company’s address, phone and often email. It is not necessary to include this information again into the body of the letter. Sometimes the writer will provide a direct phone number or personal email address if the action statement calls for direct communication. Date Full date must be included in the letter. The date is important because the letter is a formal document, often used in contract situations. The letter is usually dated the same day on which it is mailed. Salutation The formal greeting always starts with “Dear” followed by the person’s title and last name, and ending with a comma or a colon (US). This requires finding out whether the recipient is properly addressed as Mr., Ms. or Dr. Attempts to avoid the issue (i.e. substituting the title for the person’s first name, using impersonal phrases like “Mr. or Ms” or “To Whom it May Concern”, or eliminating the salutation entirely) indicate that the writer doesn’t actually know the recipient of the letter at all, making the letter a much less formal document. 4.Body Context Paragraph The first paragraph of the letter will define the context, providing a clear statement of the letter’s topic and purpose. Avoid starting a letter with flowery language that doesn’t explain what the letter is about. In social letters or in letters written for businesspeople, it is not appropriate to begin a letter with a question about the family or a comment about recent weather or world events. Content Paragraphs The typical letter uses one to three paragraphs to provide the information relevant to its purpose. Each paragraph should cover a single topic or point. In the case of a long letter that covers multiple pages, it is appropriate to break the information into sections. Action Paragraph The final paragraph of the letter provides a clear, straightforward statement of the action that will be taken by the writer, requested by the reader, or expected by a third party. Closing Two spaces below the final paragraph of the letter, a traditional closing line, generally “sincerely, ” “respectfully, ” or “faithfully”, ends the letter. If the situation calls for a warmer tone, the closing might be “cordially, ” “best wishes, ” or “regards.” Signature A four-line space allows room for a written signature immediately below the closing, then the sender’s full name is typed, with the full business title. The signature on a business letter signifies that the writer is taking responsibility for fulfilling any commitments being made. Thus, even when the sender and recipient know each other well, a full signature is used. When writing on behalf of a team or department, type the group’s proper name immediately above the written signature of the team’s representative.
