Job Seeking Advice
I pinched this off another site, but I have also received these sort of e-mails…
This morning, I received an email with a CV attached. Nothing strange there you might think. I get lots of emails and CVs to review every day. But this one was different. I’m not sure if I was meant to receive it as mine was at the end of a long, long list of company HR managers and recruiters. The sender seemed to be looking for a new job and had emailed his CV to all and sundry.
What was his objective? Well, as there wasn’t a note/covering letter on the email, I can’t be sure, but I guess he wanted the recipients to read his CV and offer an interview.
My question is – why would they?
Do you give the right impression by sending out your CV to a long list of email addresses with no Covering Letter or introduction? I’d say probably not.
There’s nothing wrong with some proactive speculative job-seeking, but to make the right impression:
