Monster. Your calling is calling.The M word 15th February 2010
Tray magnifique!
This week's M word unashamedly basks in the reflected glory of the stunning Amy Williams, who has now shot to world fame for travelling downhill at 90 mph little more than on a tea-tray. Well done, Amers! We also give you pure gold with a look at some of the likely questions you'll be asked by a prospective employer so you won't slip up in your next interview. Next, we invite you to check our cover letter samples. Whether you're a recent graduate, a busy professional (or even an unemployed snow forecaster in Vancouver), we have a cover letter sample for you. Lastly, all waxed and ready to use is our local employment finder – a tool that could literally be right up your street!
