Cover Letter Help - What They Should Have Taught You in School!

So, you need a job ASAP, you open the local newspaper and start scanning all the want ads.
You slowly start noticing that every single listing in your industry has the same pesky requirement...
Frustrated, you lean back and scream, "I need some cover letter help..
..
now!" Yes, this may be dramatic but the fact is these pesky little interview landing requirements are tricky.
I know when I graduated school nobody ever sat me down and showed me how to craft one.
Heck, I didn't even know how to write a resume (those are a whole other beast).
I was fortunate enough years ago to have attended a class at my local military base that actually helped to prepare folks for their transition from military life to civilian life.
Luckily, one of the courses was designed to show you how to write an effective cover letter and land job interviews in 'The Real World'.
This simple little class has allowed me to offer cover letter help to not only friends and family, but people like you on the internet.
So below I will reveal 3 of the most critical aspects you absolutely must nail if you are serious about landing that job interview: 1.
Personalization - Make each cover letter different 2.
Get a Headline - Stand out from the pile 3.
Answer the Question "What's in it for me?" - Tell your future employer how what you have to offer will improve their business.
These are just a few of the more critical aspects of an effective cover letter, but I am positive they will get you moving toward landing that coveted job interview you are looking for, good luck!
