Screening process one- Resume/Cover letter
Contrary to logical thinking and what we have always been taught, the traditional cover letter when applying for gov’t is not as important as your resume.
Because HR (Public service agency) pre-screens most applications because of high volume, it is important to put the qualifications for a given position at the top of your resume, preferably in bullet points. Generally, they simply don’t have time to
read through your nicely crafted cover letter.
HR then passes the pre-screened applications to the manager/director of the specific position. If you show how you meet all the qualifications right at the top of your resume, it makes it really easy for them to move you to the next screening step.
It is very easy now to apply to lots of positions. You would be surprised if you have a degree of any sort the kinds of jobs you will be considered for.
Good luck and see you next week for the next screening process – the written test.
