Job Hunt 1

Finally, I have gotten the spirits to start my job hunting. I have a pile of classifieds from singapore's papers. I spent some hours browsing through it, sadly, only few jobs caught my attention. This is the 3rd day I sent out my application, but, no news from them :( Now i have realised the toughness of hunting. Maybe my art of hunting needs to be sharpened up.

I think it is important to always attach a cover letter together with your resume. It is stupid to send out a cover letter that is not tailored to the specific company. For example, you have used the cover letter for company XYZ and please be rememberd to change the content ( company name, post you're applying for, your skills to match the job .etc ) when you want to apply for the next job. Imagine how the person react when the cover letter its not meant for the company! So better spend some time on it, google it.... or whatever.

Good luck to myself!
