making a resume
ok -

need some hints, pointers, and actually - a heads up on what I should include.

it's a job for a junior designer for a clothing / design / record label
..it's pretty small, and there weren't that many requirements

I don't have much 'design' experience, instead an absurd ammounts of experience in classical techniques (figure drawing, stone lithography, etc) but what I've done has usually had a 'modern angle' (oh, and many years experience w/ photography)

I've already been told I should definitely talk up my psych classes, especially ones like "Sensation and Perception" and maybe include a tagline/ short description

but what about the cover letter? - like what are you supposed to say

and... I've decided to include a 'portfolio' of my work - essentially just a cd-r with a few digital pictures and/or scans of my work... but how many do you think I should include? My g/f said no more than 20... which is going to be really hard ...
