best prepares his case, who wins. If your "case" is properly prepared and presented,
your victory will have been more than half won at the outset.
Do not be afraid of making your brief too long. Employers are just as much
interested in purchasing the services of well-qualified applicants as you are in securing
employment. In fact, the success of most successful employers is due, in the main, to
their ability to select well-qualified lieutenants. They want all the information
available.
Remember another thing; neatness in the preparation of your brief will indicate
that you are a painstaking person. I have helped to prepare briefs for clients which
were so striking and out of the ordinary that they resulted in the employment of the
applicant without a personal interview.
When your brief has been completed, have it neatly bound by an experienced
binder, and lettered by an artist, or printer similar to the following:
