Thanks Rob. I have been sending out a ton of resumes, mostly to advertised jobs which match my background. I have sent out about 10 unsolicited resumes to local employers so far nothing.
I have a question since our professions are similar. Any Technologist with a little experience can qualify for a variety of positions. How do you word the cover letter when sending out the unsolicited resumes?
I would be willing to accept a role as a Manufacturing Engineer or a Management postion overseeing technical people. How do you target this broad range in the letter? I have been told by HR professionals not to leave it wide open with the hope that the employer figures out how you can fit into their organization, you need to give them a sales pitch of where you fit in.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
