<p><span style="font-size: 16px;">In all types of writing, but application writing in particular,&nbsp;<strong>concision</strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>clarity</strong>&nbsp;remain desirable. Potential employers want to read your resume and cover letter&nbsp;<em>quickly</em>&nbsp;while also getting a feeling for what you bring to the table.<br /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 16px;">&nbsp;<span>In session three, you'll have the opportunity to revise your draft to</span><em>&nbsp;say more with less</em><span>&nbsp;-- that is, to add detail while using your word limitation more powerfully.&nbsp;</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 16px;">Read the document linked to the bottom of the screen.&nbsp; Then view this video:</span><span style="font-size: 16px;">&nbsp;<a href="https://youtu.be/VeCOIcSHKp4">TED Talk "Why Concision Might Save Your Life."</a>&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 16px;">Then make a&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1s3E0GVE0-HMJ3Efe9m5ooYnyokAO3L-_IxpRKjUbQEM/copy?usp=sharing">copy of this exercise</a></strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>submit</strong>&nbsp;your eight revised sentences on the next slide.</span></p>
