RESEARCHING PROSPECTIVE EMPLOYERS
To write the most effective résumés and cover letters, and to prepare for job interviews, learn about your prospective employer by doing some advance research.

Try the direct approach. Ask your prospective employer for a brochure about the firm or business.
Use the Web. See the listings in the
job openings section in this guide. Search the Web for a specific firm name by placing it in quotes; for example, "Hellmuth Obata and Kassabaum."
Visit the Business Library, Haas Business School; it houses the campus' business collection and is a good place to research a large company or firm.
Check the newspaper(s) of the city where the firm or organization being researched is located. See News Databases (Library home page → Electronic Resources → Electronic Resources → Types →
News Databases) for Internet access to a variety of national and international newspapers, or visit Newspapers & Microforms, 40 Doe Library.
Use journal indexes to find articles about specific architectural and design firms and planning organizations, as well as job market information. See also the Environmental Design Library for guides to additional periodical indexes in planning, architecture, and landscape architecture.
