| | | | | Dear Agung, | | Sometimes when you're in the midst of looking for a new or better job, it's easy to lose focus on the basics of being a good applicant. Most of us have done it at some point... there's just so much time and energy that goes into finding and applying to jobs, that it's tempting to cut corners a little on the repetitive tasks like customizing our cover letter or resume. | | Unfortunately, trust me when I say that hiring managers can see the shortcuts, too... which is NOT good. This is your first chance to make a good impression, and if you don't put a 100% (or 110%!) effort into your job application, why would they ever believe you'd put 100% into being an employee for their company? | | We've got some great blog posts below to help refresh, inspire, and fine tune your job search. And for more ideas, I highly encourage you to visit our amazing Blog & Community area, where we have so many excellent expert articles and tips on Cover Letters, Resumes, and other job search topics! | | | Thank you for trusting us to help in your job search to find great telecommuting, freelance, part-time and flexible schedule opportunities!
