  6. What recruiter looks first Points to remember: • How is the information presented? • Cover letter • Subject line • Skills vs. Requirements • Years vs. experience • Skill sets and projects

  7. Cover letter • It describes your attitude and how you present yourself before others in e-mail. • It should not be too long nor too short. • Mention your personal strengths and willingness to take the challenge in adverse conditions. • Never address with sir/madam. Just say Hi. • In the cover letter mention the source of the recruitment news. • End the cover letter with positive statement e.g. I look forward to / in anticipation of etc.. • Mention your contact number at the signature of the mail (bottom part)

  8. Applying jobs Browse all the job related websites daily. • Be the first to apply. • Now-a-days there are trigger counts in the database, so when the database reaches that count (it block the DB and triggers a failure) • Apply as per the requirement only. • If the eligibility criteria is not matching never apply for it. say, the requirement is for experienced, then freshers should not apply for this and vice versa.

  9. Contd… • Always go through the job resource (job news) and applying strictly though the procedure it has mentioned. • A proper procedure helps the recruiter in filtration of resumes from a pool of resumes. • Mention the subject line as mentioned in the recruitment news. E.g. job code. The rule automatically filters the resume with job code • In case the job code is not mentioned, then follow the belo format batch/qualification/specialization/percentage/location/skills (skill is optional) e.g. 2006/B.Tech/Comp.Sc./76%/bangalore/C++

  10. Contd.. • Always keep track of the job-news. • Do not apply multiple times for a single recruiment. • Now most important factor: If you have received any job news, go though the mail/news twice before applying. • Do not ever send your resumes to anyone, if it is not asked in the mail/news. It creates problem in the recipient's work who might not be concerned to this and he/she will delete your mail and resume too. • If it is a referral recruitment, then the employee (whom you have referred) should be aware of this, so inform him/her.

  11. Contd.. • Be professional while applying for jobs, never be emotional nor disclose your weakness. • If it is a referral recruitment, then try to find out an employee of that organization (use your networking). • Send a request to that employee with the source of the recruitment news and request him to forward your resume to the concerned HR team. • Never send your resume to anyone if there is no recruitment for freshers in that organization. If it is then it is advisable to send with the source.

  12. Etiquettes • The recipient should be in “To” field. • Never apply to multiple recipient in “To” or “CC” field. • If you are applying to multiple job-emails then keep all the recipients in “BCC” field. • Mention subject line as it is asked. Refer slide number 8. • Never address with Sir/Madam. • Always write cover letters (it should be small and meaningful) Refer slide number 6. • Never ever send your resume to any unconcerned person. • If you are forwarding any job news/ mail to others, then remove the header of the mail.

  13. How to prepare after getting call • Gather maximum possible information about the company • Know the fields/domains they are working on • Try to find any employee of that company and mention his details on the resume (while going to interview). • Be confident .
