i'd been jobless for 6months and it's getting depressing. I speak and write english well, graduated from good local uni and could not secure a decent job. my credentials is hardly relevant to most jobs out there for eg hr, sales & marketing, IT.. i worked in oil and gas company before but found lack of future prospect and unsuitable environment and decided to switch line of work but it's particularly difficult for me. jobstreet for eg posted jobs which require at least one or two years of experience which is understandable considering those people are the ones who had undergone graduate trainee programs and had the basic experience.

There are so many jobs outthere. Dont just sit at home, apply job street and wait things to happen. U have to be proactive.

Call the company, look for their hr personnel. Get into. Attend job fair.

Hi guys, just a quick newbie question. I've prepared my 2page resume and I'm ready to send it out via mediums such as jobstreet, jobsdb, etc. Do I still need to attach a cover letter along with my resume? If not, then in what situation should a cover letter be attached along with my resume? Thanks.

No need.

You submit your cover letter if you know the exact HR personnel email address or you submit via hard copy to the respective person.

not all companies are like that, as I know, media prima and astro do have to option to deposit the resume to HR, HR will then decide which department to place you. Example this is from astro:

Found nothing suitable or matches to your qualification and experience? Fret not, you can email us your latest CV/Resume at future@astro.com.my

Thats call resume bank. Lot of MNC company has it. They had their own portal where you can deposit your resume in their database directly. No title needs unless you want to specify your job application.

For the email, you have to put what position you are looking for. This is due to the HR personnel will do sorting base on the job applied. Do not think HR will look at every single CV submitted. They wont entertaint not serious job applicants especially fresh graduates. Dogs and cats application are too much which flood mailbox.

Decide what u r looking for and not let others Decide for you.
