Cover Letters

Happy Sunday everyone!

OK, How many of you have been struggling sending your resume out countless times with absolutely no response. I would like to know, when you apply are you sending a personalized Cover Letter with your resume or application?

I have found so many people that do not, or well, I send one out once in a while. Then I look at a copy of it and it so bland, boring, and generic. If I were a hiring manager it would insult me actually. Guess which resume pile you just ended up in...

I strongly advise you to put together a great Cover Letter, it should be as Great as your Resume! Have it in your documents and address each one directly to the person who will be reviewing it. You do "triple time" trying to find out this person's name, (do your homework).

If you have any questions or need some advise please do not hesitate to contact me. I will do what I can to assist or coach you.
