Cover Letters
At Career Development Resources, we will help you develop an aggressive cover letter that competitively exemplifies your valuable experience, personality, style, skills, and all-important accomplishments to accentuate your value and appeal. A professionally written cover letter makes a terrific first impression and substantially differentiates you from candidates who just don’t bother with this important tool. Depending on your career campaign, you might consider that differently worded letters are used to: apply to a posted or printed announcement; work with an executive recruiter; contact a company directly even if they haven’t announced a vacancy; or use a contact as a bridge to this new organization. You have only two opportunities to sell yourself into obtaining that all-important interview: your résumé and your cover letter. Our strategy is to design both for maximum effect.

Interview Coaching
WHEN EMPLOYERS CONTACT YOU,
YOUR PROFESSIONAL IMAGE
AND YOUR SKILL AT INTERVIEWING
WILL DETERMINE WHETHER YOU GET AN OFFER.
Everything that you do to get your interviews will be wasted if you don’t convert them into job offers. And yet, most people assume that there is little they can do to prepare for these critical meetings. Nothing could be further from the truth!
[Read More...]
The fact is that smart job seekers are very well prepared. Furthermore, if you want to optimize your success you should be able to control the pace and general direction of any interview.
Control of these sessions begins before the interview ever starts and continues after it has ended.
- The image you project,
- the questions you ask,
- the answers you give,
- and the many things you don’t do,
- …all play their parts.
And when you do get an offer, it should be for your maximum worth. What you earned with your previous employer has almost no bearing on your potential value to a new employer. If you allow your talents to be bought at bargain basement rates, it won’t be long before you and your family are unhappy.
There are numerous techniques and strategies in this area which are simple to absorb and easy to apply. Those we assist can learn them in a minimum of time and such strategies can have a tremendous impact on the income and benefits negotiated. Over the course of a career, the knowledge that we supply in this area alone, can be worth many hundreds of thousands of dollars (or more).
Few things in life are more important than winning the right job!
Winning the right job is never easy.
For some reason, very few people seem to realize that the good positions at all levels are won by those who devote their time and energy to becoming proactive job candidates, and who then market themselves in the most intelligent, strategic manner.
To find and win the job that is right for you, you must understand the different avenues for entering the job markets, and you must know how to logically approach each market segment. It is all too easy to operate without an understanding in this area, and from our experience, doing so can prove to be very costly. Avoiding the common pitfalls requires extensive knowledge of job search strategy and technique. We thoroughly educate our clients in these areas, and once understood, this information can be of incomparable value time and again throughout a person’s career.
Before anything else, you need to understand yourself and your potential.
Our 30+ years of experience in working with clients from all walks of life enables us to be of substantial help in these areas. We effectively help people plan their moves with a clear picture of their strengths, and with solutions in mind for dealing with any possible liabilities. The result is that their chances for reaching their goals are multiplied exponentially.
You need an effective action plan to generate interviews and the proven techniques to make it all work and successfully transform your candidacy into a solid, lucrative job offer.

As an over-simplification, people find themselves in one or more of the following situations:
- I’m not sure what jobs fit my interests …
- I’m not sure what kind of a job I’d be happy in…
- I don’t know what kind of job I’d be good at…
- I can’t seem to identify jobs that are compatible with my values…
We’ll help you figure out where the hang-up is and then go about getting the concrete information necessary in making valid career decisions. We will explain, in great detail, how your abilities, experience, personality style, and values match up with desired careers.
