Cut Down Jobhunting Time With Cover Letter Examples

Did you know that by national average, your typical American could easily take 9 months to find a new job? I don't know about you, but most of us just can't afford to wait that long. What if there was a way to "magically" cut that jobhunting time down into ribbons?

Well, there is...and it's called a cover letter. Well, I guess that's not entirely accurate...it's called a good cover letter. Most job applications require a resume, and why would you ever turn in an application without a resume? Well, the same goes for a cover letter...why would you ever turn in a resume without a cover letter?

When a corporate paperpusher is trying to sift through hundreds of job applications in the pursuit of finding ONE person to fill the slot, do you really think he or she is going to sit there and read through every single resume, check every single source, and give every single applicant the same chance? No! Nobody in the world has time to do that. What that person is going to do is look at all the cover letters. It's the first thing they'll read, and it's your first elimination to get through.

The process is simple: the resumes with good cover letters stay, and the ones with the poor cover letters --or worse, NONE at all!-- will be kept "on file." Translation: paper shredder.

So if you plan on making it past the first round, it's a necessity to have more than just a cover letter, but to have the best one possible! Don't forget,,your resume is important and of course you'll have to be qualified for the position, but a shining cover letter can do more than open the door; it can roll out the red carpet for you.

Now, this is great if you are already an expert at writing amazing cover letters...but what happens if you for some reason missed the opportunity to go to college to get a master's degree in Cover Letter Writing? What if you're just a guy looking for ajob? Think about it. what's the best way to learn how to do something?

You have somebody teach you! You find somebody who's written a great cover letter in his life, and see what he did. You learn by example. And why just one person? Learn from dozens of examples...see what works, and learn how to adapt it to your own personal needs. By no means am I telling you to plagiarize or rip off of other people, but by seeing what others have done you can see how you can do it as well.

But there's a little problem...where exactly can you find these sorts of cover letter examples? How do you distinguish between the ones that are worth looking at and the ones that are garbage? I happen to know of a place where you can get what you need.
