The Look and Latitude

Now that your resume and cover letter have been sent into the world to impress employers, it's time to make contact. Ideally you should receive a telephone call or email within a few days of the employer receiving your information. If not, you need to take initiative and follow up. At this crucial point of contact, your personal presentation is extremely important, both on the telephone and through email. You want to make the best possible impression before you meet in person. Your attitude and etiquette counts. Don't disqualify yourself from the race before it's even begun! When it's time to prepare for interviews, you need to dedicate some forethought to your all-important “look.”
