Course Description

Overview

Have you been unemployed and searching for work for more than 1 month?

Are you sending job application after job application and not getting any response?

LET ME ASK YOU:

  • Do you have a long cover letter that you carefully customize before sending it out?
  • Or do you have 1 cover letter and 1 CV that you send out for every job ad?
  • Or do you just forgo the cover letter and send the CV on its own?

If you answered yes to any of these then you are limiting your chances for getting a job!

You see a cover letter is an essential part of the job application process. If it’s written incorrectly, your job chances are weak.

WHY I CREATED THIS TRAINING

My name is Tom and I have worked as a recruiter for the past 2 years. I have seen hundreds of job applications. Throughout my experience I have come across a lot of mistakes on cover letters and CVs.

I soon came to realize that it doesn’t matter whether a person has 30 years of experience or is just a fresh graduate. Writing the cover letter and CV is an entirely different topic, altogether.

So I decided to make this course. I wanted to help job seekers find a job they want as fast as possible. For this to happen, you need a great cover letter and a powerful CV.

The purpose of the cover letter is to get the recruiter to move onto your CV. The purpose of the CV is to get the recruiter to call you and book an interview.

COURSE FOCUS

This course is focused on writing the perfect cover letter.

So if you have had no luck in your job search, if you have found yourself just sending application after application week in and week out, this course can help you.

Sign up today and you will learn how to create the perfect cover letter within the hour. A better application greatly improves your chances for getting a job. See you on the inside.
