Common Mistakes in Cover Letter and Resume Writing
The cover letter and resume provide crucial first impressions for potential employers and will play a crucial role in helping to decide whether or not an applicant gets an interview. Common writing mistakes can be avoided with some recommendations from Employment Authority. The best salutation for a cover letter is addressed to a specific person. Hiring managers want to know an applicant demonstrates attention to detail by researching the correct company contacts and by presenting a flawless document. The best choice is to cleanly type both documents using the same conservative font and printing them on high quality stationary with matching envelopes. Inappropriate, unnecessary, and unprofessional details should be avoided. Another common error is wordiness. Employers want to scan a resume and get the basic details quickly. Concise writing is easier to scan and therefore has better results. The most common problem hiring managers see is a lack of proofreading. If a resume and cover letter are submitted with even one or two errors it could mean the applicant is not considered. MORE

Get the Edge with Resume Distribution
Getting an interview requires getting a great resume to the right audience. Employment Authority can help you through the difficult job-search process with a guarantee you will have the most comprehensive resume distribution and job-search service in the country. Your resume is sent to potential employers identified in our national bank of corporations. The companies are chosen and listed by industry, location, and size. According to industry experts, your resume does not need to be chronological, but it has to stand out. There are two resume formats that conceal your shortcomings: the functional and combination. A functional resume lists skills and accomplishments over a period of time. A combination resume merges the chronological and functional styles to present your knowledge and abilities gained from your experience; often these abilities are listed in reverse chronological order. Your well crafted resume must follow with a ''good'' cover letter, which is a brief, one page introduction addressed to a specific person. It should never be addressed to 'Whom it may concern'. Be proactive by expressing your confidence, then follow up with a phone call. You might be noticed the second time around and it doubles the chances of you scoring an interview. MORE

"There are always vacancies. Organizations are born, organizations expand, workers become restless, quit, change jobs, move, become ill long-term, or become handicapped, retire, or die. There are always jobs out there waiting to be filled. The fact that you can't find those jobs only means the vacancy hasn't been advertised, or you're not using the right method to find it. When the Internet or job-postings, or agencies, or ads, or resumes, don't work, there are other ways of turning up the job you want. So, if you're coming up 'empty,' you need to change the search method you've been using. ... To speed up your search for one of the jobs that are out there, go after many different organizations, instead of just one or two."
