Application Letter

Jumat lalu seorang sahabat sms saya minta dibuatkan surat lamaran yg komprehensif, waduhh yg kayak apa tuh ya, secara aku belum pernah jadi orang HRD jadi ga tau juga gimana aplikasi yg baik. Selama ini modalnya cuman pede bin narcis hehe. Korek-korek file di USB lama, akhirnya kukirimkan padanya contoh surat lamaran yg pernah kukirimkan ke Unicef ini, saya pernah ngidam banget kerja di NGO Internasional atawa Badan PBB, jadi nekat surekat meski ga nyambung sama kerjaan sebelumnya.

Yg pasti selama ini kalau ngirim surat lamaran saya usahakan tidak via email, jadi pakai POS or TIKI, amplopnya pilih yg kaku jadi ga gampang lecek, warna kertas suratnya ga putih aja (biasanya campur sari tuh, lamarannya biru muda, CVnya biru juga tapi gradasi, or coklat dan krem), jenis kertasnya pakai conqueror (lamaran pakai conqueror tipis, CV pakai yg tebal, dgn asumsi yg dipelototin CVnya hehe). Alhamdulillah selama ini trik itu berhasil membuat saya dipanggil ke beberapa wawancara, masalah diterima tidaknya belakangan hehehe. Sok atuh kalo mau dicontek.
