Resume & Cover Letter “Set”
Before we go on, I’m sure you’ve noticed that I’ve been saying resume and cover
letter set, not just resume. That’s because sending a cover letter with your resume
is absolutely critical. A resume and cover letter together—let’s see, they’re like
mashed potatoes and gravy, sushi and warm sake, a cheese platter and fine wine…
it’s not the best idea to present one without the other. And that’s something I’ll get
into later on with tip #1, “Always Send A Cover Letter.”
Why Isn’t Your Job Search Going As Well As You’d Like?
Well, it could be because of a number of reasons…
1) First of all, the issue of a cover letter. Be honest…have you been sending
your resumes without one? And if you have been sending one, is it a basic
one that you use for all of your resumes, or do you take the time to tailor
a different cover letter for each job you’re applying for?
2) On your resume, are you being specific about the job you’re applying for?
If your objective isn’t clear, that will likely frustrate the hiring manager,
and your resume will probably end up in the trash…
3) Are you detailing what you’ve accomplished on previous last jobs, or are
you just jotting down a bland list of duties and responsibilities? I’m sure
you’ve achieved some…
These are just a few things that could be damaging your job search. But hopefully,
by using the tips in this guide, you’ll be closer to finally getting that dream job
you’ve wanted for so long.
I Hope You Find This Guide To Be Helpful…
I understand that the job search can be hard work, at times frustrating, and, on
those difficult days, you may feel like you’re going nowhere. But that’s not true. The
fact that you’re even looking for another job, something that pays better and will
give you more deserved recognition, shows that you have initiative. You’re taking
action, trying to improve your life, which is a lot more than most people are doing.
So with that, let’s go ahead and concentrate on supercharging your resume/cover
letter set. We’ll focus on the best ways to improve them, so we can get that phone of
yours ringing with more offers for the job interviews you want.
