Kenneth Bradley used a chronological resume. He started with his name, address and phone number, but missed his email address and possibly home address.
There were two employers in his employment list: Fred Meyer and the University of Montana. Under the Employer Fred Meyer he started with his first job at the company as Janitor. It would be better to use the reversed version, e.g. to list the last/ present job at first. Some employers will just skip through the resumes and look for last/ present work experience.
All his references listed in his resume referred to his experience as a Janitor by Fred Meyers. I — as an Employer — would be interested to ask for a reference from the University of Montana. He worked in a position that is relevant to this job application.
I also missed a summary statement, interests and activities in his resume.
In his job-application letter he followed the rules. His formulation “I believe that my academic schooling […]’ seemed a bit week. It will be stronger to write: “I am sure, that my academic schooling […]’.
He highlighted his experience in a particular course from the university that is relevant to the job. The skills he gained and the carrier he made at Fred Meyers, described him as a driven and diligent worker, who is willing to give his best in each job.
In the concluding paragraph he asked for an Interview with confidence and left his email address.
Bradley should have invested some time and thoughts to revise his resume and job-application, so that any future employer will consider him.
