As a reminder, the fifth workshop in DAP’s Fall Career Planning Workshop Series (The Power of Specific Cover Letters) will be held on Monday, November 9th, 5 pm.
There are few things more impacting than a well written specific cover letter. When candidates move from general cover letters to specific expressions of relevant skills and company knowledge with passion and confidence, the response rate of employer’s climbs significantly. Discover how you can tailor your letters to specific companies, people and positions and bring out the best of your past to demonstrate your previous successful performance to help them believe you can produce results again. Create an attraction that will compel them to invite you to an interview and eventually make you a job offer.
