When we think of Everyman we have to include absolutely everyone on this planet.  That of course is a generalisation but effectively true.  When we think of education and what is so abundantly available to every child from any background and any creed in this country, it seems almost obscene that some children cannot be bothered to go to school to take up this life enhancing opportunity.

However, sometimes when they reach early adulthood, youngsters to look back and regret those hourse spent idling with chums.  Really ruing the fact they messed up and cannot now get any kind of a job.    Getting educated is the one thing that has absolutely no detractors – it will assist us for the rest of our lives, whether in helping to get that job or keeping it when we’ve got it.  Learning isn’t all boring rote stuff.  There are the social skills too.

For the average family the expectancy is that each child will go to school, whether keenly or reluctantly doesn’t matter here, the fact they can go is the relevant issue.  Then we trust that the teachers will instill as much knowledge as possible into the brains of the children and that they will come out of school at the end of the conveyor belt as balanced, worthy and nice human beings!

some might do so well that they become teachers and lecturers themselves, or doctors, surgeons, bankers etc.  On the other hand, schools are able to see the potential in some children and get them streamed for great sporting careers or in the arts as singers, musicians etc.  Any child who faulters is picked up and helped along.  The same goes for those who missed out – online learning is a fantastic tool to help reinstate those years when effort didn’t come first.

A Covering letter is a document which is sent along with your CV to the company you want to work for when they advertise a job vacancy.  It is a great opportunity to sell yourself along with the skills you hold, but many people make basic errors when they write their covering letter.  Here are our top tips for making your covering letter work for you.

1. Make sure it is no longer than 2 sides of A4.  Any longer than this and you are likely to be waffling!  Stick to the point you are making and make sure your letter stays nice an short.
2. Make it neat.  Keep your font size to around a 10-12, in a sensible font such as Ariel or Times New Roman.  These are clear and easy to read as well as look professional.
3. Tailor your letter to the job – make sure you explain exactly why you suit that particular job!  Lots of people make their cover letter vague and able to use with all job applications, but since this letter could make the difference between the CV being read or not, it is always worth tailoring it to each and every job.
