Writing your Resume and Cover Letter
Are you applying for a job and you suddenly need help with your resume? The good news is, we are here to help!
With our recruitment and HR experience at Key Business Advisors, employing staff and recruiting for our clients, we have seen plenty of resumes come past our desks. There have been good ones, but we’ve also seen many, perhaps more than we would like to say, that really could do with a helping hand.
Unfortunately, if your resume is poorly presented and does not promote you as the perfect candidate for the role you’re applying for, it’s likely your resume will land in the “NO” basket. It is a competitive job market, with often, a lot of good candidates to choose from, depending on the role. So you want to be sure that you have a killer resume that helps you stand out from the crowd.
There is no denying that it is a skill to write a good resume. You want to make sure it looks professional, easy to read and understand, and tailored to the job you’re applying for.
We know the thought of writing a good resume can cause a headache for some and be overwhelming for others. That’s where we can be of assistance. Whether you need to write a resume from scratch, improve the resume you have, or you may have a few different versions and need help putting it together to create one killer resume, let us help take away the pain.
And let’s not forget about the cover letter!
The cover letter is equally as important as your resume! If you don’t have a good cover letter or worse still, none at all, chances are, your resume may not even get a look!
You want to make sure that you have a professional letter introducing yourself tailored to the role you are applying for. Yep, that means for every role you apply for you adapt your letter. Using the same generic cover letter for all job roles is obvious and will not set you apart from other candidates.
How do we know this? Because we recruit for our clients every day. We can tell you what we like and what we don’t like, what will help you get the job, and what could potentially stop you from getting the job you want.
