You've
been told you MUST USE job search cover letters to
succeed. You've been told you DON'T NEED job search
cover letters. What's the story?
Let me
approach this from two points of view. If you're
intent on conducting a "traditional" job search
campaign, then you want to seriously consider
supplementing your resume with a cover letter. But
don't even bother if it's going to be some kind of
routine, photo-copy of a standard letter you
concocted.
Why?
Because employers receive thousands of them. These
letters all say the same thing. And they get the
same treatment that standard resumes get. Trashed!
A job
search cover letter can be a valuable part of a
traditional job campaign if it's individually
written with the reader in mind. An employer will
respond positively to a letter that demonstrates the
writer has taken the time to learn something about
the organization and its needs.
What's
more, if the letter contains a proposal that shows
how the writer can resolve current issues or make a
contribution to bottom line, then it may get an
employer's attention. You see, employers really
don't care a lot about what you used to do for
someone else (which is what your work history is all
about). But they can be very attentive to an
obviously personalized letter that shows how the
writer can quickly become part of the team.
This
means you must do your homework and individualize
your job search cover letter. Obviously, that takes
more time than a standard letter. But the response
rate is significantly higher. And you avoid the
disaster of mass distributing your letter and resume
. . . and just hoping for the best.
Now, I
told you there are two points of view. You have the
option of conducting an alternative job search using
non-traditional career advancement strategies. When
you do, you avoid all the resume writing and
distributing hoopla, and employ amazingly successful
techniques that can have you entertaining job offers
in as little as two weeks!

we guarantee those results? Well, can you abandon
the old-fashioned job search methods that we've all
been taught? Are you ready to embrace the new,
innovative 21st Century alternative approach - one
that has rethought the whole job search process from
the ground up?
If you
can, then you'll join the thousands of job-seekers
worldwide who have locked up high-paying jobs in as
little as 14 days! And you'll be meeting
face-to-face with hiring decision-makers in a matter
of days . . . without job search cover letters!
