Emma: Hi there, James! How's your day going?


James: Hey, Emma! It's going well, thanks. How about you?


Emma: Pretty good, thanks. So, I heard you're working on your resume and cover letter. How's that coming along?


James: Yeah, I've been working on it, but I'm not too sure if it's up to par. Do you have any tips on resume writing?


Emma: Sure thing! First off, make sure your resume is clear and organized. Use bullet points to highlight your skills and experiences, and keep it concise. Also, tailor your resume to the specific job you're applying for.


James: That makes sense. What about cover letters?


Emma: Ah, cover letters are important too. They give you a chance to introduce yourself and explain why you're interested in the position. Make sure to address it to the right person and customize it for each application.


James: Got it. Would you mind taking a look at my resume and cover letter? I could use some feedback.


Emma: Of course! And maybe you could take a look at mine too. We can help each other out.


James: Sounds like a plan. Let's do it together.


Emma: Great! We can practice writing and editing them together. It'll be like a mini workshop.


James: Exactly. Thanks, Emma. I really appreciate your help.


Emma: No problem, James. That's what friends are for, right? Let's get started!
