When applying for jobs, it’s important to remember that hiring managers often get swamped with applications.

To help your resumes and cover letters stand out, tailor EVERY resume and cover letter you submit to the particular:

  • Role
  • Industry
  • Organization

Otherwise, your documents may get lost in a sea of generic applications, and you won’t have another chance to express your interest and suitability for the job.

How to get started?

Remember, you don’t have to tackle this challenge alone!

The Hari B. Varshney Business Career Centre (BCC) provides BComs free access to various resources to help you craft resumes and cover letters that get results.
