How To Get Recruiters’ Attention When Applying For Jobs By E-mail - Vineck.com by Kingstel(m): 11:01pm On Jan 05, 2017 |

If you answered in the affirmative, then you are not alone. This is what necessitated this write-up by Vineck.com (warning: It is NOT recommended to EVERYBODY!). If you truly desire to check how well your applications are henceforth, then it is important to change your approach in ensuring you get the attention of the Human Resource (HR) personnel in the recruiting firms (I am not referring to automatic acknowledgement upon submission of applications, but a real person communicating back to you live). Why is This Important? It is no longer news that good jobs are very hard to find these days. No thanks to the high rate of employment; and don’t forget that it is a global problem. But how a country manages her employment issues differs (this is a topic for another day). Vineck.com learnt that unemployment problems are worse in many African countries as it has been said to be mainly responsible the incessant crime occurrences with some so petty like the theft of a cup of rice, salt, sugar and so on. As usual, applicants are always in their thousands with everyone struggling to get the recruiters’ attention. Like Vineck.com for being exceptional amongst other blogs in less than 100 days in operation, one of the wisest things to do is to stand out; and this is the essence of this piece as you will come to know soon. So, how Do I Get the HR Attention by E-mail? One of the toughest tasks for any Human Resource personnel is finding the best applicant(s). The more applications received, the more cumbersome it becomes. That is why it is VERY wrong to send in your CV without any 2 or 3 short sentences, or even paragraphs as the case may be. It is vital to emphasize here that the sentences/paragraphs written must address the specified job requirements in a convincing way; and stating why you are the best for the job. And now, to the crux of the matter. This is a simple concept of doing the unusual in a rather professional way. To be brief, you just have to intentionally LEAVE OUT your Curriculum Vitae (CV) in your application. I mean you should not add your Curriculum Vitae (CV) despite stating in your application letter/message that, as the common norms: “My CV has been attached for their perusal.” This will make the recruiter to reply your application telling you to attach your CV. Most recruiters - Vineck.com authoritatively gathered - know that your first application without the CV attached could be a result of poor network, and not actually your fault (fear not!). Let me stop here. Did you get the lesson? Copied from: http://www.vineck.com/2017/01/how-to-get-recruiters-attention-when.html 5 Likes |

Applying for a job through mail without attaching my CV? Errrrrrrr .... I do not think that is a risk I want to take. Most recruiters receive hundred of applications per second for just one vacancy, I'm sure they would gladly overlook receiving more mails from anyone who goofs attaching his or her CV. At least, that is something I know I would do. Lastmumu 20 Likes |

It will take a miracle for a Nigerian recruiter to contact you. Not when he has thousands of option to choose from. Unless people that applied for the job is very few |

First, I commend you for coming up with this unique idea but it's success would certainly be location-dependent. The competition is very stiff here and one therefore needs to tread softly. I'll rather advise that such applicant should write a compelling Cover Letter (serves as the body of your mail) while he attaches his CV. The idea may work in Europe or North America but certainly not in Nigeria. Even if you're successful with that approach and unfortunately for you, your CV and Cover Letter are nothing to write home about, what would you do? In need of outstanding CV Template or Cover Letter? View some samples: http://.com/ms-word-editable-cv-format/ http://.com/how-write-exceptional-cover-letter/ |

this is an assumption. Some recruiters can be crazy. Failing to attach your CV will make it easy for them to disqualify you. It's not just one person that does the sorting so, woe betide you, yours fall in the hands of a crazy staff, he'll just be like "this mumu sef cannot attach ordinary CV, is that how he will work here?" the next thing is to trash you application. Just do the right thing, if you are the right person for the job, you will get it. |

The recruiters will simply say, the candidate lacks 'attention to details ability'. And that may give them the first reason to disqualify the candidate. |

My friend did this some weeks ago, and having an interesting cover sentence, he was asked to attach his CV as they noticed it wasn't attached and since then, he has been communicating with the MD himself. He did well in the interview BTW. It works if you package yourself/words well. They would want to know more. 1 Like |
