Listen Later

Is that you? You are writing hundreds of job applications, but you always get rejected. You never make it to the job interview. And you have no clue what should be wrong with your CV or cover letter.

In this episode you will learn about the most common five reasons why a hiring manager or recruiter rejects a job application. And only making one of these five mistakes can lead to a rejection.

So please check the CV and cover letter you are creating for a job against the following:

  1. Your skills are not matching the important requirements
  2. You have not made a visible effort to create CV and cover letter
  3. The recruiter/hiring manager has doubts on your availability
  4. You are “nothing special”
  5. You have a wrong picture about the job

  6. If you are looking for a job in the Corporate world or want to take the next step in your career, I would be happy to support you in your skilful self-presentation and showing your true, authentic self to a company! Therefore, this podcast is based on three pillars:

    • Self-confidence & self-esteem
