What you can do better to increase your chances. Most likely it has to do with lack of preparation. We’re not talking about simply reading the job description–although that’s a start–or visiting the company’s website–that’s important too.

In this webinar\, you’ll learn how to be a detective. \n⚠️ To receive credit for attending this event\, MassHire customers must arrive on time and stay until the facitilator states that webinar has concluded. \nFor accessibility options\, please contact Ellen at 978-805-4807 or ellen.waszak@masshirelowellcc.com. \nPlease enter your Job Seeker ID (Mass JobQuest) when registering.

That value is typically expressed through the résumé. However\, another document can add just the little extra that you may be looking for\, and that is the cover letter. \nIn this webinar\, we will discuss the cover letter and ways to customize it. In addition\, we will touch on the approach letter which is a proactive job search document and the closing document\, known as the thank you or follow-up letter. \n⚠️ To receive credit for attending this event\, MassHire customers must arrive on time and stay until the facitilator states that webinar has concluded. \nFor accessibility options\, please contact Ellen at 978-805-4807 or ellen.waszak@masshirelowellcc.com.  \nPlease enter your Job Seeker ID (Mass JobQuest) when registering.
