21. The witches chant this in the 1st scene of the play
The witches chant this in the 1st scene of the play. Literally, this states that what is good is bad, and what is bad is good which translates to a common truism we have today, “Things aren’t always what they seem.” This is a common theme found throughout the play.
The news that Macbeth will be king seems like good news, but it turns out to be the beginning of his downfall. Lady Macbeth appears to be loyal to the king when, in fact, she’s planning his murder. The witches apparitions make it seem that Macbeth is invincible because he cannot be defeated until woods march up a hill nor can anyone born of a woman kill him. However, this was all clever truths or paradoxes to tempt his ambition for power and inflate his confidence.

23. The Résumé

24. What is a résumé?

25. What is a résumé?
A résumé (also spelled resume) is a brief document that summarizes your education, employment history, and experiences that are relevant to your qualifications for a particular job for which you are applying.
The purpose of a résumé (along with your cover letter) is to get an interview. Research has shown that it takes an average of ten (10) interviews to receive one (1) job offer, so your résumé needs to be persuasive and perfect. Given this, your résumé must be user- centered and persuasive.

26. What should be the length
of your résumé and
important sections
to include?

27. Résumés should be one page in length since readers take generally less than 20 seconds to look over it.
The general purpose résumé usually contains five sections:
Contact
Summary or Objective
Education
Experience / Skills
Awards, Honors, and Activities

28. What is the quadrant test?

29. The quadrant test
Readers typically read from left to right and from top to bottom
when information is "balanced" (about an equal amount of text
and white space) on the page.
Being able to anticipate the reader's
response to a résumé in this way will allow
you to manipulate information according
to the quadrant test.
First, divide your résumé into four quadrants,
as seen in the example to the right.
Next, scan the information for 20 seconds.
The most important information should be in
quadrants 1 and 2 since this is primarily what readers
make time for.
Image Caption: Résumé split into quadrants.
