Resumes present a great deal of job seeker background that’s often never read for 2 reasons:
- Most resumes contain so much content that they don’t immediately capture the reader’s interest and consequently only get 6-10 seconds of read time.
- Many companies rely on Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to review resumes in order to determine which candidates to consider for phone screens.
But an effective email cover letter does what a resume typically can never do—it enables you to CONTROL THE STORY in a very concise, easy-to-read way. When written properly, it immediately connects the dots between your key achievements and the most important requirements of the job. It doesn’t bury the reader in a long list of bullet points under each job but rather, it keeps the reader focused on your key competencies and what value they bring to that specific position… those are your stories. And cover letters are also very effective at giving you access to the “hidden job market” by getting you interviews with companies that don’t have advertised positions. A resume by itself just can’t do that. The cover letter is the door opener.
During this webinar, NSENG Founder/CEO and Job Search Coach, Marty Gilbert, will present specific cover letter tactics that you can apply immediately to significantly raise your visibility and capture more interviews with companies that are of interest to you. Here are a few of the topics that he will cover:
- How to decipher a job description to identify the most pertinent job requirements
- How a cover letter should be constructed
- How to write customized cover letters in less than 20 minutes
- How a great cover letter can get you access to the “hidden job market”
- How an effective cover letter can separate you from 100-200 other job applicants for each job
- Effective email cover letter examples
