Sept. 12 HW# 2 Annotated Bibliography

Alright, now that I have finished my cover letter & resume, here are some of the sites I used: http://www.nfdma.org, which was the first place I was able to find any sort of job ads in funeral science. This website is for the National Funeral Directors Association. I heard about this website from Michael Smith, who is the executive director for the American Board of Funeral Service Education. I also checked out their website, which is where I ended up finding the job advertisement at Westford Funeral Home, in Washington. That website is: http://www.abfse.org. Both of these websites were helpful because they had recent advertisements for funeral science positions. You can't just look in the paper and find a job ad for a career like that. You have to find certain resources for finding that sort of information.

Believe it or not, I had never heard of funeral science before this class. What is it all about? What do you do with that degree? Do you run funeral centers, or what?

I think it was a really good idea for you to think of looking on websites like these for job ads. One thing that I wish was that I could have seen everyone's job application packet. That would have been very interesting.

I checked out www.abfse.org and I was able to learn much more about your career path. It sounds interesting. What made you want to become a Funeral Director? Do you have family members that are in this profession?
