Hey There 👋 

Happy Better Yourself Friday! 🎉 April is here, and with it comes fresh opportunities to take your career to the next level! 🌟 Whether you're actively job hunting or just getting ready for future opportunities, having a strong resume and cover letter can make all the difference.

Your resume isn’t just a list of past jobs, it is your personal marketing tool. Make sure it highlights your strengths, achievements, and the value you bring to an employer. Tailor it for each job application by using keywords from the job description and focusing on measurable accomplishments. Strong action verbs like “led,” “created,” and “achieved” help make your experience stand out.😄

Don’t forget your cover letter! 📄 Think of it as your elevator pitch, it should be short, engaging, and specific to the role you're applying for. Instead of repeating your resume, use it to show why you’re passionate about the role and how your skills align with the company’s needs.

So without further ado, here’s another installment of Better Yourself Friday

Let's Gerrit!

Writing Cover Letters in the Digital Age: AI Do's and Don'ts for Job Seekers

AI-powered cover letters can save students and jobseekers time, but they still need a personal touch, and forgetting that could be detrimental. While AI helps with structure and wording, it’s crucial to customise each letter to reflect your unique skills and passion for the role.

Employers value authenticity, so tweak AI-generated content to showcase your personality and career goals. Make use of AI as a tool, not a replacement. Proofread, refine, and make it truly yours to stand out in the job market! 🚀
