Most of the job seekers put a lot of emphasis on creating an impressive CV hoping that it will grab the attention of the person responsible for short listing the resumes. However, they have no idea that a well constructed cover letter immensely increases the possibility of getting selected. There is a vast majority of candidates who do not realize the importance of writing a cover letter and most of them apply to jobs without this essential document.

Contrary to the common belief, the cover letter is not just an added document to increase the appeal of the resume. All employers expect to receive a well written and concise cover letter attaches to the CV and by not sending one you are committing your first mistake.

Question From The Job Seeker

I have been working in an advertising agency for the last six months as a junior copywriter. I am new in the company so I am not given much responsibility and a lot of work that I do has to be rechecked and many changes are made in it. This makes me feel unmotivated and I think that my superiors do not trust me and my work is not up to their standards. Can you please tell me how I can improve my quality of work? Also, the actual reason I am writing to you is that I need some advice on an upcoming leave. I planned to take a week off from work, as a family event is approaching for which I have to be out of the city. But the team is working on an important project nowadays and when I leave on vacation, it will be near its end. Although my leave has been approved, I am still confused as to whether I should go to the event or stay back and work. The other thing is that I have not been contributing much to the project and a lot of my time is spent sitting in the cubicle as no one has asked me to do anything on the project. If I am not contributing to the project, is it not ok to go to on leave? Let me know what you think as soon as possible.
