Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Mark a follow-up date on your calendar to send a formal letter. Format your letter in formal business style. Use the information in your email as a starting point to draft your letter. Highlight skills and experience that would be valuable to the company. Close your letter with a "call to action. Proofread your letter carefully before printing and signing it. Enclose a copy of your resume.

Answer: It's appropriate to follow up with a formal letter if you don't hear much from the recruiter after you send your brief thank-you email. Wait about a month if you're not looking to start work for several months. However, if you're hoping to start work in the next month or two, send your letter 10 to 14 days after you send your thank-you email. You may also want to set a reminder a couple of days before the follow-up date so you have a little more time to draft your letter. Your word processing app likely has templates you can use to create a formal business letter. Address the letter to the recruiter you spoke to at the career fair. Use a conservative, readable font, such as Times New Roman or Helvetica, in 10- or 12-point size. Begin your letter by mentioning that you spoke with the recruiter at the career fair. Include the specific name of the career fair and the date it was held. You can also add the details from your conversation that you mentioned in your initial thank you email. If anything has changed since you sent the thank you email, add that information to the first paragraph. For example, if the recruiter recommended that you talk to a department head in the company, you could let them know that you reached out to that person. In the second paragraph of your letter, talk about how you would be an asset to the company in the position you're seeking. Include soft skills, such as leadership or self-motivation, to round out this paragraph. For example, you might state that you are proactive and self-motivated, then note how you spearheaded a volunteer program to walk dogs in your local animal shelter as an example. " For the last paragraph of your letter, let the recruiter know what you're going to do next or what you want them to do in response to your letter. Provide a date by which you'll follow up again. For example, if you're anticipating an interview, you might let them know when you would be available by saying "I would like to discuss this opportunity with you in person. I am available Thursday and Friday afternoons after 2:00 p.m." If you send a letter with typos and grammatical errors, your effort may backfire. Reading your letter out loud can help you notice grammatical errors and spots where the phrasing is awkward. It can also help to have a friend, instructor, or school advisor read over your letter. They can give you tips on how you can make it stronger and more persuasive. Read through the resume you previously sent to the recruiter and update it to account for any changes. Then give it another proofread before you print it up. Print your resume on quality resume paper. You can find this paper online or at office supply stores. You might also want to print your letter on the same paper.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Eat every 2 to 3 hours. Do not let yourself get too hungry. Eat smaller portions. Snack on shelled foods.

Answer: Waiting long periods between eating can leave you feeling starved. If you're extra hungry, you're more likely to wolf down food. Instead of eating 3 large meals a day, make a point of eating a small meal every 2 to 3 hours. Make sure to be aware of calories. If you're eating every 2 to 3 hours, you need to keep the caloric content of your meals lighter than you would when eating 3 meals a day. In addition to helping you eat more slowly, this can rev up your metabolism. If you end up starving by the end of the day, you're likely to binge eat. If your stomach is growling and you're feeling extreme hunger pangs, you've let yourself go too long between meals. When you feel a small amount of hunger building, start planning on what to eat. Strive to have a snack within the next half hour or so. Small portions can force you to savor your food and eat more slowly. Work on being aware of serving sizes. Strive to eat nutrient dense meals in smaller portions. Make sure to read nutrition labels. This will give you the idea of an actual serving size. A bag of chips may say it's only 150 calories, but the serving size may be half the bag. Use small visual cues to determine portion size. A serving of carbohydrates is about the size of a hockey puck. A serving of protein should be no bigger than a deck of cards. If you feel hungry between meals, have a snack. Stick to something like peanuts or pistachios. If you have to open the shell of a food to eat it, you will have to slow the pace of your eating. Be careful, however, when eating nuts. They tend to be high in calories. You can also try eating foods that you eat one at a time. For example, snack on blueberries but don't eat them in handfuls. Focus on one blueberry at a time.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Choose an interesting podcast topic. Use the proper audio equipment. Develop dynamic host chemistry. Secure interesting and compelling interviews.

Answer:
Selecting a podcast topic that has an existing niche fan base will increase the number of people who listen to your show. Identify a niche that you're familiar with within a larger community to determine what your podcast should be about. Podcast topics can include politics, social issues, wellness tips, music, celebrity rumors, or interesting stories. Poor audio quality will turn new listeners off and lower the chances of your Soundcloud going viral. Make sure that you use high-quality microphones and recording equipment so that people can understand the podcast. Popular podcasting microphones include the Heil PR-40, Samson Meteor, and the Blue Microphones from Yeti. If it's more than just one person, having dynamic, interesting, controversial, or funny hosts will increase the popularity of your podcast. Make sure to get hosts that have varying opinions and views to keep the podcast interesting and to encourage lively debate. The guests that you invite onto your podcast will influence your fans and audience. Get guests that fit within the scope of your podcast and invite people who have a large fan following. Even if people don't know your podcast, the interview may go viral.
