Hi, i got little confusion regarding the resume, wish u guys can help me >"< cry.gif cry.gif

at the job fair, those exhibitors usually will just ask those interested candidates to drop in their resume, right?
i'm curious here, since i do not know what job position will the particular exhibitor offer, so do i need to drop in the "Cover Letter" ( since i do not know the job position available) together with resume or just simple resume/CV blink.gif rclxub.gif

i c ... i have 3 situations which are bothering me, (1) like i dropped my resume to company A at a job fair 1, then, the company A appeared in job fair 2 with same position available. can i dropped my resume again? as it creates duplication. doh.gif

(2) similiar situation, dropped resume in job fair 1, then, i saw the same position available on jobstreet, should i just waiting for the reply? or apply again with the resume stored in jobstreet sad.gif

(3) in the case i am interested to apply for 2 positions within a same company, should i choose either one or i can apply and send resume for both? blink.gif

sorry for asking such dumb questions, hoping comment from you guys icon_question.gif fresh graduate desperately waiting for the application reply cry.gif cry.gif doh.gif

i am from sarawak, and one of my friends told me that sending the cover letter and resume directly and personally to the human resources department of the company will show greater sincerity and higher possibility being call... do you guys agree with the idea?

if so, is the situation equivalent to posting the documents through pos malaysia?

are you talking about advertised vacancies or unadvertised vacancies?

For advertised vacancies - MOST applications are directed to the Human Resources Department.

For unadvertised vacancies - yes, you can do so but chances are, your application will be KIV-ed, but no harm trying smile.gif Before you do that, make sure you check out the company's background and the departments that are operating in it. This will help you to know the company's operations and management and the potential job types that are available in those companies. Good luck

it is an advertised post nod.gif jz applied for a post in a bank through jobsdb, thinking to resend a hardcopy of cover letter and resume to the human resources department this week ...

i saw a comment from somewhere, saying sending both soft and hardcopy will result the documents throw into the dustbin because of duplication. icon_question.gif is this real ? sad.gif hoping advice desperately cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif
