It is common knowledge that many people are unhappy with their current jobs and are seeking new ones. However, not so many manage to make that job switch.
Contrary to what some might believe, many employers do look at CVs and Cover letters and read through them. So if you fall in the job hunter category and have been at it for a while, unless you are getting interview calls, you need to pause and restrategize. These tips might help.
- Apply for the the right job - if you don't speak a word of french why are you applying for a job that requires you speak french fluently?
- Be concise - make short sensible sentences in your cover letter
- Compare, compare, compare - by this I mean compare your CV and Cover letter with others before you send them out
- Definitely give examples - so you can do x, y and z how about you cite cases and scenarios
- Eradicate errors from your CV and Cover letter (nothing shouts incompetent more than those mis-spelt words and grammatically wrong sentences so make your's error-free)
