It’s your chance to showcase your skills, achievements, and fit for the role. Here are some key tips to ensure yours stands out: 🔹 Tailor Your Cover Letter: Customize it for each job application.

My Grade 6 students are getting ready to discover their strengths and skills using a card sort from the Exploring Possibilities resource. Their next step will be to submit a resume and cover letter for the classroom job they want. Job interviews will follow! This is part of a literacy unit I developed called “Now Hiring.” This is how I “staff” my classroom jobs every September. The kids love it and they get to make a contribution to our classroom community that allows their unique abilities to shine. It is also a great way to get to know them. Many aspects of the career coaching work I do with adults can be adapted as fun, engaging and meaningful learning for the children I teach. Career education is for all ages, and I love bridging the two aspects of my professional life. #teacher #careercoach

Do you feel proud after reading your resume? 😎 If you don't you may need to improve it. I've seen many clients' faces light up after we have re-written them a more impactful and dynamic showpiece of their history and their talents. A resume is not supposed to be a somewhat boring recollection of the duties you performed in all your past jobs. It should be a revealing expose of your talents and how you have applied these to various work challenges throughout your career. To get noticed in today's very crowded job application process, you need to have the WOW factor right off the bat! This can best be done with the help of a career coach who knows the landscape of the job hunt and can identify what hiring managers are looking for. You have exactly 1 1/2 minutes to impress them.
