Consider this: who shows up to their first date in awkward attire and anticipates their date to recognize their positive intentions?
Okay some of us did and maybe we never recovered from it but the "courtesy rule of engagement " here is simply to come in your best attire and embrace chivalry.
It at least helps us see your good intentions when you start talking.
The workplace and interview processes aren't completely different
Your CV and these cover letters allow you to practice chivalry and make it easy for Hiring professionals to get you through the door.
With the rate of remote work and how individualistic we get Courtesy working in silos, it becomes important for organizations to invest in setting the culture straight when new stars are recruited. This fully helps us distinguish between what is expected from the brand of value being created
When it comes to making a great first impression, your resume is crucial. It should be able to open doors for you, just like a well-dressed person can get into any party with the right words.
In this new era, AI can assist with basic tasks, but sometimes a human touch is also necessary. If you feel like you need support, don't hesitate to contact a career coach who can provide personalized assistance with your job application. (Feel free to reach out via direct message if this applies to you.)
The cover letter is like a leather jacket on your T-shirt which always makes you feel good. so make sure your “cover jacket” does not have someone's name on it or some other job you are applying we shouldn't be aware of.
let it give us a reason to want to bring you in for more dates.
The interview session is like a date you don't want to be ghosted after you show up in your not-so-inspiring wear. so let's make the first impression count cos that is what we want.
