A poorly prepared application in response to a recruitment advertisement will not convince a potential employer to invite you to a recruitment meeting. We have already written a lot about mistakes that should not be made in the CV, both us and other recruitment websites. But how do you create a good cover letter and what are the most glaring mistakes to avoid? Many candidates complain about the fact…
You don’t have the heart to write cover letters ? You don’t know how to start or you are never satisfied with the result? Do you think nobody covers the letters? Are you looking for a more creative form of word than a letter? Instead of the traditional Cover Letter, you can use several other interesting tools – but remember to match them well with the position you are applying for…
Talking with jobseekers or reading their statements on Internet forums gives a rather bleak picture of the current labor market. There is no work, the bosses want to hire the employee as cheap as possible, you cannot find a job without knowing them, half of the CV lands in the basket and nobody covers the letters . Is this all true? Yes of course! But only partially. Just…
Today I had the opportunity to correct the Cover Letter , which as a friend sent me a friend. Among the various minor stumblings, the most important, which effectively leveled the attractiveness and effectiveness of that letter, was the fact of a fairly broad description of the professional experience and competences of the candidate – completely unrelated to the job position for which the person is applying.

Graduates not only do not have much professional experience – they also do not have much experience in looking for a job. This means that their CVs and cover letters often do not encourage contact and are full of truisms.

We have 7 proposals for you. 1. Cover Letter Not new right? The cover letter is required…
Why are so many cover letters poorly written? Bad enough that recruiters stopped bothering to read them and most simply skip them? Maybe because the Cover Letters are simply written with the wrong assumption? Work is a commodity (or – if you prefer – a service). The employer does not employ us because he wants to help us or because he values people with blue…
What is the problem with cover letters? Most of them resemble crude job applications, full of pleonasms and worthless information. How to breathe life into it? 1. Correct formatting At a time when cover letters were written by hand, formatting was limited to paragraphs only. There are many more possibilities nowadays. It is worth using them to make the letter more readable,…
Cover letters are now on the back – most companies no longer require them. However, if it is otherwise, a well-prepared letter can be a ticket to the recruitment meeting for you. How to do it?
