Today, we are going to delve into one of the most misunderstood elements of the job search: your cover letter…Because so many job seekers are writing them the wrong way, hurting their job search results big time. In this episode we’ll cover the following questions:Are cover letters broken?Why do I need a human voice in my cover letter?What’s the difference between a resume and a cover letter?To tackle these questions, I brought on Tom Powner, founder of Career Thinker. Under that umbrella, he is a LinkedIn strategist, resume writer, job search & interview coach, and recruiter for sales, marketing, and HR professionals. I know Tom because we are both parts of the Professional Association of Resume Writers and Career Coaches. And perhaps most relevant to you job seekers-- I met Tom on LinkedIn.
