I choose this topic because (unfortunately) it remains relevant, and several of you have shared during consultations through the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/mailchi.mp\/1a3b59bff61d\/100-kafa-sa-regruterom#oprojektu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\"100 coffees with a recruiter\"<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> project that you find yourselves in such unpleasant situations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So why would someone decide not to respond to your email?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are several possible reasons, and we'll go through some of them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>1. 200 other people have applied for the same job!<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recruiters typically receive between 20 to 50 job applications per day, making it simply impractical to respond to each email, as CV screening is just a small part of their job.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, if you've sent an outdated CV that doesn't leave an impression, lacks a call to action, or something that grabs attention, don't be disappointed if you don't get a response\u2014others have done it better!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The competition is fierce, and you must do everything possible to somehow stand out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>2. You applied for every possible job.<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is one of the most common mistakes you make\u2014you apply for every open position, thinking \"if it works, it works!\" This can give the impression of a desperate person who has no clear idea of what they want to do. Frankly, this scares employers!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similarly, it also indicates that you're not carefully reading job ads and don't value the recruiter's time, who will just roll their eyes when they see that you've AGAIN applied for a job that doesn't match your experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, the message is clear: don't apply to every single job ad, especially those that require skills, experience, or education you don't have. You're shooting in the dark and wasting bullets in vain!<\/span><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What if you don't have experience but have tremendous enthusiasm?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Invest time in crafting a quality CV that conveys your passion! Read career blogs (like this one, for example), and explore numerous YouTube channels, podcasts, and influencers where you can learn.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have the budget, consider getting support from a professional mentor, as it will save you years of wandering. One such career mentor platform is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/minutadoposla.com\/en\/pojedinci\/self-service-jobiri\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the Jobiri<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the self-service platform we mentioned earlier.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>3. You always send the same CV<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you're among those who send the same CV to all employers, it's no wonder you're not getting responses to your emails.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">O tome kako se pravi CV koji regruteri zaista \u010ditaju pisali smo ranije, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a bi\u0107e rije\u010di i u nekom od narednih blogova. Za sad je va\u017eno da znate da morate napraviti po jedan CV za svaku poziciju za koju se prijavljujete!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, in your CV sent for marketing positions, emphasize your experiences related specifically to that role and showcase concrete results of your work in that field. Allocate less space to other work experiences in that CV. Personalize your CV, use the tone and language of the employer, and you can even play around with incorporating colors used by the employer into your CV.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>4. You don't send a cover letter<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recruiters love to read cover letters, as long as it doesn't just repeat what's in your CV. No one wants to read the same story twice.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A cover letter is your chance to tell your story, explain gaps in your CV, highlight achievements, and convey your personality. If it's well-written, it's more likely to get you a job interview than your CV alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your application, including your CV and cover letter, is your personal brand and the first impression of you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You have 7-20 seconds to make that first impression.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make an effort to capture attention for at least 10 seconds, and call to action!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>5. You don't know business etiquette<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In translation: you send an email without a subject.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Or even worse \u2013 you send an email without any text. It doesn't matter if the job ad says \"...send CV to xxx@xxx\" \u2013 that's not a reason to send an empty email with the CV attached. It's like entering someone's house, walking past them, and sprawling on their sofa. Without saying \"hello.\" Quite literally.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2705 Greet the person you're emailing.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2705 Introduce yourself.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2705 Pay attention to new paragraphs.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2705 Watch out for grammatical errors.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2705 Watch out for capital letters.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2705 Sign off at the end of the email.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2705 Thank them for their time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And of course \u2013 double-check that you attached the correct document \ud83d\ude42\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are just some of the reasons why your emails go unanswered, and while the reason could be anything, by following these tips diligently, you'll increase your chances of getting a job interview.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why your emails go unanswered and how to improve for successful communication with employers.
