The writer of these documents does a understands how his skills match the reader's needs. In his letter, he shows that he knows what skills he has that might be useful to someone applying for this position.The last paragraph has some especially good personal information that demonstrates the writer's work ethic. However, some of the information may be a bit too personal.

Also, his introduction could use some tweaking. It's a bittooenthusiastic, even for someone in marketing.

Mr. White's resume also contains some good information, but it could be more effectively formatted. His brief skills segment might be more impressive if he changed the subheading to puter Skills, and then got rid of the more generic skills in this area, the information about excellent writing and munication skills. It's best to show rather than tell these skills. Excellent written munication skills are actively demonstrated in this particular situation through well-written documents.

Also, look at that employment segment. It is unrelieved by white space and difficult to need. Why does he need the word responsibilities before listing each job duty when the format makes it obvious that this is what will follow?

The education segment is likewise problematic. He wastes time by listing courses that any student in his major would take. These courses don't make him uniquely qualified for the position.
