What Happens After You Create a Great Resume and Cover Letter - The Secret Career Document and More!

Job Interviews, Secret Career Document, Job Offers, are you lost when it comes to what to do next?

You've now spent countless hours perfecting your resume and learned all the techniques to make your cover letter stand out and get noticed. What do you do now? How do you translate your resume package into job interviews and more importantly job offers? Would you agree that securing a job NOW is oh so important to the quality of your life and your overall happiness? Here are the next crucial steps you MUST take in order to move forward in your job search!

5 Essential Steps to Land That Job:

1) To start with, if you have in anyway skimped or cut corners on your resume or cover letter, go back right now and do the necessary research and work on these two important pieces of the puzzle. DON'T use Free resume templates. DON'T take your cover letter cues from Free cover letter samples! DO NOT put any Junk out there or you are sure to get Junk results, meaning very few if any call backs for interviews. Realize once and for all that there are extremely bad ways to create these documents, average ways that are passable (but in this economy you can not afford to be just "average") and highly effective ways using the latest result producing methods.

2) Get your resume out there, its a numbers game and if you don't have yours in front of a lot of the "right" people you are dead in the water. I personally use Resume Rabbit for the speed and efficiency it gives my clients in getting their job skills seen.

3) Let Proactive be your middle name, even if you find the follow up call a painful thought that makes you sweat, JUST DO IT! You must take every opportunity to place yourself in front of the hiring manager and stay there through the entire process. There is no time to be spineless and look for an excuse not to do what you know you need to do. (ex. My resume is so great I don't need to follow up, yeah right)

4) When your interview calendar starts filling up, make sure you are prepared in every way! Confirm your appointment, make sure you know how to get to the interview, do your research on the company and most importantly make sure you get a good night's sleep!

5) Knock the socks off the interviewer by submitting a 30/60/90 Day Action Plan detailing what you are bringing to the table and how you are going to help the company get to the next level. Give them a reason to hire you. Make them imagine right on the spot how you fit into the company and what you can do for them. This is your "Secret Career Document" (secret because very few people have discovered how powerful this technique really is) and it is responsible for getting more job offers than anything else.

Amazing Cover Letter – The Resume Secret That Will Shock You

Every job seeker runs around frantically making sure their resume is the best ever created. The Truth is that the attention grabbing power is really all in an Amazing Cover Letter -Not the Resume! Most people don’t understand this little know fact and just whip something up to stick on the front of the resume.

Grossly underestimated, your resume cover letter is actually the “Sales” letter, the attention grabber, the “hey, I need to know more about this guy”, which when done properly can send your resume package to the head of the line not into the trash, barely read. If you take the time to think about it, it makes perfect sense! The resume is NOT the first thing that the hiring manager reads, it is of course the Cover Letter, so like any other sales piece you have about 5 seconds to grab their attention, after all they have a lot of resumes to get through!
