| Publisher Description: There are lots of job applicants out there chasing a limited number of positions. You need an edge.Being unemployed is not fun. It tears at you deep inside and makes you question you worth. Anything you can do to shorten the time you spend between jobs is going to directly improve your finances and your self-image.Many job applicants send out hundreds of r sum s and don't seem to get any phone calls for interviews. Their efforts are wasting their time and leading to disappointment and discouragement. You don't have to be one of them.I and my clients have used these same techniques again and again to turn job postings into interviews. Sometimes, I have turned down a job, but I couldn't turn down a job that hadn't been offered. And, I have to tell you, it feels a whole lot better to be in control of the situation and be able to compare competing job offers and turn some down so that you can take the job you really want. But, if you cannot get the interview, you cannot get the offer. And if you cannot get them to read your r sum , you won't get an interview.This book will help you to handle craft cover letters so that you can make the best impression and get a job interview while others just getting rejection letters.AND - along the way, I have gathered up links to the top cover letter and job search resources available today and put them all in one place for you.So, don't just take my word for it. Read this book and then get a couple of other books on cover letters so that you can be positive you are getting the best advice money can buy.Amazon Related Topics Answered In This Book Snag a Job Job Hunting and Career Guides R sum s R sum Templates Curriculum VitaeGoogle Related Topics Answered In This Book R sum Templates R sum s R sum Examples Curriculum VitaeMany years ago, I found myself looking for a job.
