How does someone create a competitive edge after an interview? "Secret Weapons In Beating The Competition"

While accomplishment-packed resume and cover letter coupled with a
well-crafted "Thank You" letter are still powerful and essential tools
in your arsenal of job-hunting tactics; there does exists a set of
documents that will offer you a competitive edge on the tough
competition.

The key documents and method of delivery used to ultimately impress a
potential employer consists of sending the strategically timed duo of a
"Follow-Up" letter and a "Critical Leadership Initiatives" document.
The "Follow-Up" letter gives you a chance to refresh the interviewer of
your previous meeting and jog their memory about your major attributes.
The "Critical Leadership Initiatives" document is another tool to
expose the interviewer to additional selling points with a one or two
page breakdown of your top-performing career moments in a simple and
easy to read four-step scenario layout. These scenarios give you a last
opportunity to motivate the interviewer into hire you.



1. Describe a challenge you faced while at a previous job.




2. Explain the approach you took to the situation.




3. Break down the actions you took to eliminate or remedy the issue.




4. Finally, blow the reader away with the successful/profitable outcome you created for the employer.




Creating these initiatives using your triumphant career stories will
certainly demonstrate the high return on investment you have to offer.
Be sure to use related examples demonstrating the desired skills for
the new job to cement your victory.



Now that you have drafted these two powerful documents, it is
imperative to time their arrival precisely. Therefore, you will need to
obtain a deadline date for the final hiring decision. By implementing
this clever and hard-hitting approach, you will gain a vital edge in
beating the competition.
