5. Applying Too Late
Some vacancies close once enough qualified applications are received.
Waiting until the deadline can reduce your chances.
If you are interested in a position, apply as early as possible.
Early applications often receive more attention.
6. Writing a Weak Cover Letter
A great number of candidates either skip the cover letter or write one that’s overly generic.
Your cover letter should answer three questions:
1. Why do you want this job?
2. Why are you qualified?
3. Why should the employer choose you?
Keep it concise, personal, and relevant.
