Dare You Ask for What YOU Want?

Asking for what you want can be tough no matter what it is, but when there is a job at stake it can feel even tougher.

What you should do is to gift-wrap your CV by including a well-written letter on matching quality paper (black print on white paper is ideal), but make sure you keep your career change cover letter to one page only.

Read my cover letters insider tips for some great ideas on what you need to do and what it should ideally look like.

First you must read and re-read the advert so carefully that when you construct your cover letter it very clearly says:

“this candidate understands what we want”

Your letter must convey your interest, confidence and competence to the reader who may be ploughing through hundreds of similar applications.

If yours is the same as all the others, what’s going to make them select you?

First off, you must Grab their attention so PLEASE say in your covering letters that you're interested in the job (hardly anyone ever does!!)

Then talk about what you know about the employer and not just yourself; illustrate your points clearly by using your skills analysis,to show exactly how your experience and skills fit their demand. Be very careful to comply with all of their instructions.

As well as reading this page on covering letters you could also read my page on 'What makes Great Application Letters' and you'll see what I mean.

I must also clear up a point my students always raise - when the advert says "apply in writing" it means write to us, don't ring us.

It does not mean a HANDWRITTEN LETTER so only handwrite a cover letter when the advert says "apply in own handwriting"

I'm sure that's a relief if your handwriting is half as bad as mine!

Now, before you send everything off in the post, take one more look at your CV.

How good is it? Is it a 'plant-pot' or is it an up-beat, positive and interesting document? Is it clearly laid out in a way that looks attractive and easy to read?

Will it beat the competition or let the competition through?

Make sure your CV clearly identifies your value, worth and your level of expertise.

There is no single way to create a winning CV but follow these steps and you will learn the best and most effective ways that will work for you. Now you can get expert help with your CV or resumejust to be absolutely sure.

You can master the art of writing great cover letters quite easily if you follow the layout guidelines I've given. Don't feel too constrained though - why not experiment with words and see what you like best.
