You've probably heard that looking for work is a full-time job. It's also an energy-consuming job. Generally speaking, an application is always accompanied by a cover letter. This is important for both the employer and the candidate. For the employer, it is a key element in easily identifying candidates who are promising, likely to adhere to the organization’s values and have the qualifications required for the position. On the candidate's side, it is an opportunity, perhaps the only one, to initiate contact with the company and to make a convincing case based on the company's assets and what it has to offer.
All in all, writing a cover letter is a crucial step in the application process, and it's never easy if you don't really know how to go about it. Although many people hate writing it, it is crucial to do it well as it can be either a disadvantage or an advantage to the candidate. You can spend several hours or even days on a single letter, when all you need to know is the basics to turn the situation in your favour and enjoy it. Then, of course, everything becomes a challenge that stimulates your problem-solving instinct.
This course will give you what you need to feel comfortable and proud when writing your cover letter. It is up to you to stand out from the crowd.
