Cover letter?
Is this 1990?
No! - crumple it up!
Alright so, yeah, that's exactly how we feel about the cover letter, so in this video i'll
show you three things you need to be doing instead of wasting all your time on a cover
letter.
what do you think about that?
. Good.
#1 locate the hiring manager.
so you might be thing to yourself how on earth could i get to the hiring manager if the hiring
manager is not listed on the job description.
you gotta get out of your comfort zone on this one if you want to get ahead of the competition
and there's a couple ways you can do this.
If you are applying for a small company, this should be really easy.
You could either find them on LinkedIn pretty quickly or you can call the company directly.
Ask the secretary on the phone who the hiring manager is and nine times out of ten, they'll
tell you who it is and they'll even give you the hiring manager's email.
If it's a large company or a medium size, mid-to large size company, you may not be
able to do that that quickly because there's so many employees.
Go on LinkedIn and do a search for people in that particular group in the department.
Find one or two that you can target, and send a LinkedIn message directly to them, and sometimes
the people's LinkedIn profiles they also have their email is that's the case also send them
a direct email.
Ask them kindly to share who the hiring manager is and let them know that you are trying to
apply for the job and you just want to send your resume directly to them.
#2 email the hiring manager.
Now if you've gotten as far as getting the hiring manager's email, you are doing better
than 90% of people who are blindly applying through an application system.
So, what do you do at this point?
In your email you want to have your resume attached, and in the body of the email you
want to have a short 4-5 sentence intro and a theme of why you are going to crush it,
why you are perfect for the role.
Right, this is not about how you want the job so bad, this is selling yourself in that
short couple sentences of why they should even take the couple seconds to click on your
resume and give you a shot as an external candidate.
#3 friend them on LinkedIn.
After you've sent the hiring manager an email what you want to do is two things.
The first thing is send the hiring manager a message on LinkedIn and let them know you
just emailed them with your resume and you are looking forward to hearing from them and
put the body of the email that you sent in your LinkedIn message.
Let them know why you are going to crush it and why they should be opening the email you
sent earlier in the first place.
The second thing you need to be doing is about thirty minutes later, after you send them
a LinkedIn message, send them a friend request.
What you've done is you've created three separate events that should get you noticed more so
than any other applicant and increase your chances for success.
